Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 medium potatoes (Russets or Yukon Golds)
- Pizza dough (traditional or store-bought, gluten-free option available)
- Mozzarella cheese
- Cheddar cheese
- Sautéed onions (or shallots or leeks)
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic powder
- Paprika
- Italian herbs
- Bacon or ham (or beef bacon or plant-based meat alternative)
Instructions
- Start by washing and peeling about 3-4 medium potatoes. Slice them thinly, ideally using a mandoline for uniformity. Rinse the slices in cold water to remove excess starch and pat them dry with a towel.
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). This high temperature will help achieve a crisp base for the pizza.
- Roll out your pizza dough into a rectangular shape on a floured surface. Transfer it to a lined baking sheet, pressing it into the corners and edges.
- Spread a thin layer of olive oil over the dough. Then, evenly distribute the potato slices across the dough, overlapping them slightly. Sprinkle the sautéed onions over the potatoes, followed by the cheese and your chosen meat or meat substitute.
- Generously season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian herbs. This is where you can customize the flavors to your liking.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbling.
- Once out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for a pop of color and flavor.
