Discover this pizza recipe created by Sandy, an Instagram content creator and cooking enthusiast, who shares an easy-to-make homemade pizza recipe on her page, using fresh ingredients and fir tree honey, which can be replaced by our organic summer honey or acacia honey.
As we mentioned, she chose to use our delicate Hédène fir honey, a product offering remarkable value for money, to add a subtle and refined sweetness to her creation.

To customize your goat cheese and honey pizza and vary the flavors, you can add one or more optional ingredients:
1 red onion, finely chopped, for a sweet and melt-in-the-mouth flavor after baking
A handful of crushed walnuts or hazelnuts, for added crunch
A little grated mozzarella, for an even more melt-in-the-mouth texture
A few herbs de Provence or a pinch of oregano, to enhance the flavors
1 fresh pear, thinly sliced, for an even more indulgent version
Fresh arugula or basil, to add after removing from the oven
Gourmet tip: add a light drizzle of honey just before serving to intensify the sweetness.
1. Prepare the dough.
Put the water and baker's yeast in the bowl, then heat for 2 min 30 sec at 37°C, speed 1.
Add the flour, sugar, salt, and olive oil, then run the kneading mode for 2 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl, shape into a ball and leave to rest for 1 hour, away from draughts, so that it rises properly.
2. Prepare the filling
Place the crème fraîche, ricotta, egg yolks, salt, and pepper in the bowl.
Mix for 10 seconds at speed 4 until smooth and homogeneous.
Preheat the oven to 410°F (thermostat 7).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Divide the dough into 6 small balls (or 2 to 3 large ones, depending on the desired size).
Roll out the dough thinly on a floured work surface using a rolling pin.
Place the pizzas on the tray and leave to rise again for 15 minutes.
Fold the edges slightly to contain the filling.
Spread the ricotta and crème fraîche mixture evenly.
Arrange the slices of goat cheese (about 1 cm thick).
Drizzle honey over the top, according to your taste.
Bake in the oven until the pizza is golden brown, with a crispy crust and melted cheese.
Once out of the oven, you can add:
an extra drizzle of honey,
a little freshly ground pepper,
or some herbes de Provence to enhance the flavors.
Serve with...
