Ingredients
- 2 balls of Kodiak Cakes Protein Pizza Dough, rolled out
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup part skim ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, finely minced
- 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt or kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 1-1/2 cup fresh mozzarella, shredded
- 2 tablespoons roasted pepitas
Directions
- In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and thyme. Stir to combine.
- Using a rubber spatula, divide the pumpkin mixture between the two rolled out pizza doughs, spreading an even layer to the edges, leaving 1/2" border. Don't feel the need to use all of the mixture, you want the layer to be somewhat thin.
- Divide the shredded mozzarella cheese between the two pizzas, scattering evenly over the pumpkin ricotta layer. Top with roasted pepitas and extra chopped thyme.
- Cook in the pizza oven for 60 seconds, until lightly browned and crisp. Slice and serve hot.
*Note: Cook time varies depending on the oven. If cooking in a traditional oven, we recommended baking your pizza on a pizza pan or stone at 450° F for 8-10 minutes.
