INGREDIENTS

  • cremini mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • gluten free pizza dough or crust (I used Udi's, homemade is best)
  • shredded mozzarella
  • Tuscan kale (about 4 leaves), ribs removed, leaves sliced into ribbons
  • gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat to 475 degrees F.
  2. Toss the mushrooms with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and salt.  Roast on a baking sheet until they are golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
  3. Roll out the pizza dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Use a 2-inch round cookie cutter to cut out circles in the dough and transfer the circles to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Drizzle the dough circles lightly with olive oil. Top each pizzette in the following order:
  5. teaspoon of mozzarella
  6. mushrooms and kale
  7. gorgonzola
  8. Optional: drizzle a little more olive oil over each

Bake until they are golden and bubbly, about 7-10 minutes. Arrange the pizzette on a platter and serve immediately.
