Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Greek Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet. Cut the top off a medium head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap it tightly in foil. Roast for 30-35 minutes until tender and caramelized. Let it cool slightly, then squeeze the softened cloves into a bowl for mixing.
  2. While the garlic roasts, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add fresh, chopped spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted and vibrant. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the roasted garlic cloves, ricotta cheese, half of the mozzarella, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Spread an even layer of the garlic-ricotta mixture across the surface of the pre-made pizza crust. Layer the sautéed spinach over the ricotta base, and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and feta cheese on top.
  5. Place the assembled pizza on a preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the edges are golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  6. Once baked, let the pizza cool for about 5 minutes before garnishing with fresh basil leaves and slicing.
