Prosciutto and Pear Flatbread Pizza
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place the garlic on a small square of aluminum foil. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil over the garlic. Wrap the foil around the garlic to seal.

  2. 2

    Roast the garlic in the preheated oven until soft, about 20 minutes. Smash the roasted cloves with a fork.

  3. 3

    Place the pears in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat. Arrange the pear slices on a baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake in the hot oven until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Preheat a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

  6. 6

    Lightly dust a flat surface with flour. Roll the prepared pizza crust dough out on the prepared surface. Dust a baking sheet with cornmeal. Lay the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the mashed garlic over the dough and top with the Swiss cheese. Arrange the pears, prosciutto, and mozzarella cheese on the pizza. Season with salt and pepper. Brush the edges of the crust with the 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil.

  7. 7

    Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
