  • Author: Noah

Description

This 3 Cheese Roasted Grape Pizza is a deliciously unique twist on traditional pizza, combining sweet roasted grapes with a rich trio of cheeses—ricotta, parmesan, and mozzarella. The grapes are seasoned and roasted to bring out their natural sweetness, then layered on a crisp pizza crust topped with creamy cheeses and fresh rosemary, resulting in a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and herbal flavors.


Ingredients

Scale

Grape Topping

  • 2 cups Red Seedless Grapes
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 sprig Fresh Rosemary

Pizza Base and Cheese

  • 1 Pizza Dough (store-bought or homemade, about 12-inch)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil (for dough)
  • 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • 1/2 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
  • Pinch of Salt (for dough)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) to prepare for roasting grapes and baking the pizza.
  2. Prepare Grapes: In a bowl, toss 2 cups of red seedless grapes with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 sprig of fresh rosemary until evenly coated.
  3. Roast Grapes: Spread the seasoned grapes on a rimmed baking sheet and roast them in the oven at 450°F for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the skins start to burst, releasing their juices and intensifying their sweetness.
  4. Prepare Pizza Dough: While the grapes roast, lightly brush 1 tablespoon olive oil over the pizza dough and sprinkle a pinch of salt to season the crust. Then evenly spread 1/2 cup ricotta cheese over the dough, followed by a generous sprinkle of 1/2 cup grated parmesan and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese.
  5. Assemble Pizza: Using a slotted spoon, transfer the roasted grapes onto the cheese-covered pizza dough, being careful to leave behind any excess liquid from the grapes to avoid sogginess.
  6. Bake Pizza: Place the assembled pizza on the middle rack of the oven and bake at 450°F for about 10 minutes, or until the crust starts to turn lightly golden and the cheese begins to melt and brown slightly.
  7. Broil for Finish: Move the pizza to the top rack and broil it for 1 minute, watching closely until the cheese bubbles and develops a golden-brown, slightly crisp finish. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Ensure you do not transfer excess grape liquid onto the pizza to keep the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Using fresh rosemary adds an herbal note that complements the sweetness of the grapes; you can finely chop it before mixing with grapes if preferred.
  • If you don’t have a broiler, you can bake the pizza a few minutes longer until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Feel free to use homemade or store-bought pizza dough according to your preference.
  • For a more caramelized grape topping, you can extend the roasting time by a few minutes, but watch carefully to prevent burning.
