Equipment

  • 1 Pizza pan
  • stand mixer
  • Small saucepan

Ingredients
 

Pizza Dough

  • 1 tsp Instant yeast
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 2/3 cup Warm water
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1⅔ cups Bread flour

Garlic butter sauce

  • 1/4 cup Butter
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 1 tsp Dried parsley

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cups Spinach
  • 1/2 pound Mushrooms, sliced

Instructions
 

Pizza Dough

  • In a stand mixer, combine the instant yeast, sugar, water, and salt. Allow to rest until the yeast begins to foam.
  • Add the olive oil and bread flour to the bowl and turn the dough hook on low
  • Knead the dough for 8-10 minutes, or until all the flour is mixed in to the dough and a dough ball is formed.
  • Either cover and allow the dough to rise for 2 hours or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours. (If refrigerating the dough prior to baking, remove from the refrigerator 1 hour prior to shaping.)

Garlic Butter Sauce

  • In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic and sauté for one minute.
  • Turn off the heat and add the parsley. Stir and set aside.

Preparing the Pizza

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉.
  • Lightly dust a work surface and stretch the dough to a 16-18 inch circle. You will want this pizza to have a thin crust. You may use a rolling pin to ensure that the dough is evenly spread and thin.
  • Place the dough onto a lightly floured pizza pan.
  • Using a pastry brush, brush the entire pizza with the garlic butter sauce.
  • Next, sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan over the entire pizza dough. Reserve 1/4 cup of cheese to sprinkle on top of all of the ingredients before baking.
  • Place the spinach evenly over the cheese.
  • Finally, evenly distribute the mushrooms on top. Sprinkle the last bit of cheese over the mushrooms.
  • Bake the pizza for 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is hot and melted.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
