Artichoke & Black Olive Pizza

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Main Courses
The essence of Mediterranean flavors on a single pizza. The slightly metallic, nutty taste of artichoke and the salty character of olives make a perfect pair. This pizza is a simpler, cleaner relative of 'Capricciosa', where vegetables dominate instead of meat.

Equipment Needed

  • Baking sheet

Allergen Information

⚠️ Wheat
⚠️ Milk

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Stretch dough into a circle.

Tip: If dough pulls back, let it rest a few minutes. This indicates gluten is too tight.
2 ✓

Spread dough with tomato sauce, leaving 1-inch border.

Tip: The clear border will puff up nicely and brown (crust).
3 ✓

Cut artichokes into wedges and olives into rings. Distribute on pizza.

Tip: Even distribution is key so every slice gets all flavors.
4 ✓

Place mozzarella slices between and on top of vegetables.

Tip: Mozzarella protects vegetables underneath from drying out while melting over them.
5 ✓

Bake 12-15 minutes until cheese bubbles and is golden brown spotted.

Tip: Cheese browning indicates deepening flavors (caramelization and roasting).
6 ✓

After baking sprinkle with torn basil.

Tip: Never cut basil with knife as metal contact browns edges (oxidation). Tear by hand!

Recipe FAQ

Can I use marinated artichokes?
Yes, absolutely! Marinated ones are usually tastier. Just drain well before use.
Why was the pizza salty?
Olives and canned artichokes can be salty. Taste them before baking and reduce added salt on dough.
