Ingredients
  

  • 5 cups Arugula
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tablespoon White Wine Vinegar
  • ----------------------------------------
  • 2/3 cup Lukewarm water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Instant Dry or Active Dry Yeast
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil extra virgin
  • ----------------------------------------
  • 2 cups Flour All-purpose
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ----------------------------------------
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil to brush on pizza crust
  • 1 1/2 cups Shredded Aged Mozzarella
  • 1 Pear thinly sliced
  • 2/3 cup Walnuts roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup Red Onion thinly sliced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 450º F with a pizza stone in the bottom or on the bottom rack. Toss the arugula with olive oil and vinegar. Set aside.
  • Measure the water in a 2-cup measuring cup. Add the yeast and honey; stir to combine. Let sit until a light foam starts to appear on the surface. Stir in the olive oil.
  • Combine the flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium-sized bowl. Pour in the yeast mixture and stir to combine to form a dough. Work with your hands to form a ball. (Do not knead the dough.)
  • On a lightly floured cutting board, divide the dough into two balls and cover lightly with plastic wrap. Let the dough sit for 30 minutes.
  • Roll each piece of dough between two parchment-paper pieces coated with cooking spray; roll each into a 12-inch round. The dough will be very thin.
  • Remove the top piece of paper and, using a pastry brush, coat the entire surface with olive oil. (Don't skip this step even if using a sauce).
  • Sprinkle the pizza with half of the mozzarella. Arrange half of the pear evenly on the mozzarella and sprinkle with half of the walnuts and red onion.
  • Place the pizza (still on the parchment) on the pizza stone and bake for 6 minutes. Turn the pizza and bake an additional 4 to 6 minutes until the edges are brown and crisp. Top evenly with half of the arugula and serve.
  • Repeat the process for the second pizza.
