Delicata squash sage burrata pizza has earthy flavors found in my garden.

I love cooking with foods that I grow or seasonal delights from my local farmers market.  Delicata squash sage burrata pizza is topped with crispy sage and hazelnuts.  Isn’t everything great topped with hazelnuts?  I can’t think of anything I wouldn’t put hazelnuts on…can’t think of a thing.

 

This simple earthy pizza is so easy to make.  You will need:

  • 1 lb pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
  • 8 oz of burrata cheese
  • 1 small delicata squash
  • fresh sage, 10 leaves or so
  • hazelnuts
  • a splash of olive oil
  • salt and pepper

The dough I used is Jim Lahey’s recipe for amazing no knead pizza dough.  King Arthur Flour has a step-by-step photo’s and instruction for this easy to prepare dough.  According to Flourish it will be the best pizza you will ever make.  I have to agree.  The crust of this delicatta squash sage burrata pizza was crisp, light, and fabulous.

Begin by cutting the delicata squash in half lengthwise.  Scoop out seeds.  Slice about 1/4-inch thick and place on a baking sheet that has been drizzled with olive oil.  Toss the squash to coat in oil.  Lightly salt and pepper.  Place in a 350 F oven and back for about 8-10 minutes or until beginning to brown.

Remove from the oven and set aside.

Meanwhile, was and dry fresh sage leaves.

Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet.  Drop in sage leaves a few at at time.  The sage leaves will cook fast.  Keep an eye on them because they will only take about 10-15 seconds.  Remove from oil onto an absorbent cloth.   Repeat with remaining leaves.

Set aside.  If you’re using a pizza stone or steel, place in a 550 F degree oven.  Pizza can be made on an oil baking sheet.

 

On a floured surface, carefully form dough into a large 12 to 14-inch round. Two smaller pizzas can be made with one pound of dough, but I wanted one large pizza.

Drizzle with olive oil then spread around the dough gently with the back of a spoon.

Chop a tablespoon of crispy sage, and sprinkle over olive oil.  Reserve about 6 leaves for the top of pizza.

Pinch off pieces of burrata and drop over the dough followed by roasted squash and hazelnuts.  Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper and a pinch of salt.  Gently slide onto heated stone and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and burrata is bubbling. Cool slightly before slicing, if you can possibly wait.

Top with remaining crispy sage leaves.

Earthy, seasonal flavors.
