ingredients

  • 1 frozen pizza crust (against the grain makes a great gluten free plain crust!)
  • 12 petite baby red potatoes (the very small ones! if using larger, use less potatoes)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons gluten free flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup grated parmesan
  • 6 ounces shredded mozzarella
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon pesto
  • 2 balls of burrata
  • 3 slices of prosciutto, torn

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425.

  • Step 2

    Bring a large pot of water to boil, add kosher salt and potatoes. Boil for about 7 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.

  • Step 3

    Make your white pizza sauce by melting butter in a small sauce pan.

  • Step 4

    Add flour, and whisk constantly for 3 minutes, to cook away floury taste.

  • Step 5

    Stream in milk, whisking until no clumps remain and "sauce" is thickened.

  • Step 6

    Turn off heat, and stir in parmesan cheese until melted.

  • Step 7

    Spread sauce onto frozen pizza crust.

  • Step 8

    Cover pizza with shredded mozzarella.

  • Step 9

    Gently crush cooled potatoes with the palm of your hand, and place onto pizza. Top with fresh chives.

  • Step 10

    Add pieces of prosciutto, a drizzle of olive oil, and as much black pepper as desired.

  • Step 11

    Bake (according to pizza crust directions, typically 7-12 minutes)

  • Step 12

    Top with dollops of pesto, and tear burrata over.
