Ingredients
- Maple chili drizzle:
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ½ tsp chili flakes
- Pizza:
- 250 g (approx 8–10 oz) pizza dough (for one 12-inch pizza)
- 225 g (approx 8 oz) cremini mushrooms, sliced
- ⅓ cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to its highest setting (ideally 550 °F / 290 °C). Place pizza stone in the oven if using.
- In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, combine maple syrup and chili flakes. Heat until it starts to bubble, then set aside to cool.
- Cook sliced mushrooms in a skillet over medium heat until golden. Set aside.
- On floured or cornmeal-dusted parchment, shape pizza dough into a 10–12-inch circle.
- Spread pizza sauce over dough, top with mozzarella and cooked mushrooms.
- Transfer pizza (on parchment) onto hot pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
- Remove from oven and drizzle with maple chili glaze. Slice and serve with extra glaze on the side.
Notes
- Use store-bought or homemade dough that has been properly risen.
- Adjust chili flakes for desired heat level in the maple drizzle.
- Try other mushrooms like portobello or white button for variation.
- Caramelized onions, red peppers, or smoked paprika make great additions.
- Preheat baking sheet if not using a pizza stone for a crispier crust.
