Method
1
Prepare your pizza dough ahead of time. Our guide to making the perfect Classic Pizza Dough covers everything you need to know.
2
Fire up your Ooni pizza oven. Aim for 500˚C (932˚F) on the stone baking board inside. You can check the temperature inside your oven quickly and easily using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer.
3
Using a vegetable peeler, shave the butternut pumpkin into long, thin ribbons. In a bowl, drizzle the butternut pumpkin ribbons with a little olive oil, plus salt and pepper to taste.
4
Using a small amount of flour, dust your Ooni pizza peel. Stretch the pizza dough ball out to 12”/16” and lay it out on your pizza peel. Using a large spoon or ladle, spread the pesto evenly across the pizza dough base. Add the butternut pumpkin ribbons, pine nuts and pepitas.
5
Slide the pizza off the peel and into your Ooni pizza oven, making sure to rotate the pizza regularly.
6
Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven. Add spoonfuls of the burrata, and top with the arugula, chilli flakes and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve straight away.
