With about 3 weeks left in December, the new year is just around the corner. If you and your friends are ringing in 2023 at your place, festive food is a must. We’ve partnered with Ooni again to bring you this recipe for pizza crostini with burrata and trout roe. It comes together in just a few steps and is the perfect way to get more use out of your Ooni pizza oven. You’ll also need a dough scraper, thermometer, pizza peel and pizza cutter wheel. If you prefer the taste of caviar, that’s a great swap to make; the rich, creamy flavor of burrata pairs perfectly with salty sea flavors. Pair with champagne or your bubbly beverage of choice and serve alongside your favorite appetizers.

Yields1 Serving

 250 g dough ball
 4 oz extra-virgin olive oil
 4 oz balls of burrata x 2
 3 tbsp trout roe or caviar

1

Prepare your dough ahead of time to ensure it rises at room temperature before firing up your oven.

2

Light your Ooni oven. Aim for 750°F to 850°F (400°C to 450°C) before you begin cooking. Use an Ooni Infrared Thermometer to quickly and accurately check the temperature of the middle of your baking stone.

3

Stretch your dough on a lightly floured surface. Push the air from the center out toward the crust, then use your knuckles to stretch out the base to 12 inches. Dock with a fork, gently pressing into the dough all over, to prevent it from fully expanding in the oven.

4

Cook the dough fully, turning to ensure an even bake. This will take about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the cooked base from the oven and let it cool completely.

5

Slice the pizza into squares (you should get 12 to 16 pieces out of each pizza depending on how big you want your crostini).

6

Tear the burrata balls into even pieces. They will be messy to handle—but that’s okay! Try to put an even amount of cheese on each slice.
