Heavenly Burrata Pizza with Cherry Tomatoes and Basil
🧂 Ingredients (Serves 2–4):
  • 1 ball of pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 ball fresh burrata cheese (about 4 oz)
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
  • All-purpose flour, for dusting

🍳 Instructions:

1️⃣ Prepare the Oven:
🔥 Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) or the highest setting. Place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet in the oven while it heats.

2️⃣ Stretch the Dough:
👐 On a floured surface, gently stretch or roll out the dough into a 10–12 inch round. Transfer to a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.

3️⃣ Top the Pizza:
🍅 Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle the minced garlic evenly. Scatter cherry tomatoes across the surface and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.

4️⃣ Bake the Pizza:
🍕 Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated stone or sheet. Bake for 7–10 minutes or until the crust is golden and crispy.

5️⃣ Add the Burrata:
🧀 Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 1 minute. Tear the burrata into large chunks and place evenly over the hot pizza so it melts slightly.

6️⃣ Finish and Serve:
🌿 Garnish with fresh basil leaves and a drizzle of extra olive oil. Slice and serve immediately while the burrata is lusciously creamy.

💡 Helpful Tip:

If you love a smoky finish, try grilling the pizza on a hot grill instead of baking—it adds an irresistible char that pairs beautifully with creamy burrata.
