Nutella Pizza + A Giveaway!

In 2016 I posted a new pizza recipe every month.
I LOVE pizza & I could eat it everyday.

Last Christmas I got THIS pizza maker which enabled my pizza habit.

(It is on sale HERE for 50% off!!!!!! Under $100...I have never seen it priced this low!)

You don't need the pizza maker (you can use your oven) but I am letting you know that using this pizza maker gives your pizza an authentic pizzeria taste! 

  For the past year, I have been sharing a new pizza recipe every month.
All 11 of the pizza recipes that I shared last year were for the main course, so I decided it was time to share a dessert pizza recipe! 

A few months ago, for Friday Night Pizza Night, I ordered pizza from one of our local pizzerias and I noticed they had a Nutella Pizza in their dessert section. 

You better believe I ordered it! 

I had never heard of a Nutella Pizza & I couldn't wait to try it.

It was AMAZING.

Kate and I practically fought over the last slice (She is my chocolate lover)

It was a pizza that was covered in Nutella and the topped with fresh cut strawberries.

 I knew that because I have my pizza maker

I could easily recreate this pizza....and I did. And, it is delicious & so incredibly easy to make. 

It is the perfect pizza to share with you guys as a finale to my Year of  Pizza Recipes!

Nutella Pizza:

Here is what you need:

• Pizza Dough  (I use the pre-made fresh dough from Trader Joe's or Safeway)
•  About 1/4 cup Nutella
• Sliced Strawberries  
• Powdered Sugar

Directions:
Roll out your dough.
If using the Pizza maker, I split the dough in half and then roll out your dough on a lightly floured surface & then I put my dough on a piece of parchment paper.  

I cook it on the parchment paper for a few minutes because then I can slide the pizza off the parchment paper without messing up the crust or making all the toppings slide off. I like cooking it without the parchment paper because then it gives the crust a pizzeria taste! If I had a pizza peel, I wouldn't need to have the parchment paper because then I would have the pizza peel to transfer the pizza to and from the pizza cooker...but I don't have one of those yet.

Bake the dough in your pizza oven for 12-15 minutes or until it is light brown.
If using an oven, bake it at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes.
 Once it is done cooking, take it out & spread on the Nutella.

The Nutella spreads on the warm crust very easily.....yum!

After you have spread on the Nutella, add your sliced strawberries to the top:

Then sprinkle with powdered sugar:

Powdered sugar makes everything better ;)

I store some powdered sugar in this canister...makes it so easy to dust things with powdered sugar:

Look at all that goodness.....

Slice it up & Enjoy!

 My kids love this Nutella Pizza....wouldn't it be perfect to make Valentine's Day? So festive!

As Kate was finishing up her slice, she said that next time we should add fresh raspberries to it along with the strawberries.

I said we could also add sliced bananas!

Wouldn't that be delicious? Fresh strawberries, fresh raspberries & sliced bananas! YUM!

Of course Claire chimed in that we could also add mini marsmallows & mini chocolate chips.

I think adding any of those would be great! 

That is the beauty of this Nutella pizza....you can add whatever toppings you want!

This is a great addition to our Friday Night Pizza night....Nutella Pizza for dessert!

Butternut Squash, Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza

As you may know.....pizza is my favorite food. 

I could eat it everyday.

Last Christmas I got THIS pizza maker.

(It is also on sale HERE)

We have been making pizza for dinner a few times a month since we got it! 

I have been experimenting with different pizza toppings/recipes and there have been some REALLY good ones!

Once a month I share a new pizza recipe with you.

You don't need the pizza maker (you can use your oven) but I am letting you know that using this pizza maker gives your pizza an authentic pizzeria taste! 

This year, I have been sharing a new pizza recipe every month.

Today's recipe is another one of my favorites....

Butternut Squash, Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza

Here is what you need:

1 pizza dough (I use pre-made dough from Safeway or Trader Joes.  I like Safeway's better because it so much easier to work with & tastes better! You can make your own dough, but when the pre-made dough is only $1.50, this is a no brainer! 
2 cups cubed butternut squash (1/2-inch pieces.....you can buy this pre cut at the grocery store!)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 cups chopped fresh baby spinach
1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese

Directions:

  Toss squash with 1 teaspoon oil, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper & sliced onions and put on a baking sheet.

Bake at 400 for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.... set aside.

While butternut squash & onions are baking,  it's time to roll out your dough.
If using the Pizza maker, I split the dough in half and then roll out your dough on a lightly floured surface & then I put my dough on a piece of parchment paper.  

I cook it on the parchment paper for a few minutes because then I can slide the pizza off the parchment paper without messing up the crust or making all the toppings slide off. I like cooking it without the parchment paper because then it gives the crust a pizzeria taste! If I had a pizza peel, I wouldn't need to have the parchment paper because then I would have the pizza peel to transfer the pizza to and from the pizza cooker...but I don't have one of those yet.

Add a splash of olive oil & dash of pepper to the crust.

 Chop up your spinach.....

 Add the chopped up spinach to the crust:

 Add the butternut squash & red onion mixture on top:

 Sprinkle on the goat cheese......

 YUM. I love goat cheese :)

 Bake in your pizza oven (or regular oven at 450 degrees) for 8-10 minutes 

(I bake mine on parchment paper for 5 minutes & then slide it off the parchment paper & bake it on the pizza stone)

 Slice it up.....

 This pizza is delicious, perfect for the fall & winter months!

 The flavors of butternut squash & goat cheese go so well together.

 This pizza tastes even better with a drizzle of honey on top.....

Enjoy!
