Ingredients

  • pizza dough
  • 4 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 4 tablespoons ricotta cheese
  • 4 tablespoons creme fraiche or 4 tablespoons thick sour cream
  • olive oil
  • black pepper
  • fennel seed

Method

  • Mix each of the dairy products together making sure they are all full fat products.
  • The four tablespoons of each should be heaping.
  • Equal amounts of each.
  • Add in freshly ground black pepper, and mix.
  • Spread over the docked pizza dough.
  • Drizzle a good olive oil over the top .
  • Sprinkle evenly with 3 tablespoons cracked fennel seeds and more pepper.
  • Place in preheated oven 475 degrees and bake about 18 minutes, until puffed and golden.
  • Do not open the oven before the first 15 minutes of baking, if you do you pizza wont be as crisp.
  • I have also made exactly the same, only frying up a couple of thinly sliced leeks in some olive oil.
  • Spreading on top of the cream pepper mixture then adding some shaved parmesan cheese and more oil, then baked.
