Instructions

1
Combine two large pizza dough balls on a floured surface. Dust the dough with more flour.

Press, stretch, and toss the dough by hand until it forms a very large, thin circle.
3
Place the stretched dough onto a large pizza peel.
4
Pour a generous amount of spinach cream sauce onto the center of the dough.
5
Using a large spoon, spread the sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
6
Top the sauce evenly with cubed mozzarella cheese.
7
Scatter the artichoke hearts over the cheese.
8
Slide the pizza into a hot oven and bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9
Remove the pizza from the oven, slice, and serve immediately.

Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Cube the mozzarella instead of shredding to create pockets of melted cheese with distinct texture throughout the pizza.
Spread spinach cream sauce evenly to the edges to prevent a dry border; the sauce adds moisture and flavor.
Quarter artichoke hearts after draining to ensure even distribution and prevent large pieces from sliding off.
Bake until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly with light browning on top, typically 12–15 minutes at 500°F depending on oven variance.

Substitutions

Spinach cream sauce → ricotta-parmesan base (lighter alternative with similar creaminess)
Cubed mozzarella → shredded mozzarella (traditional; will melt faster and more uniformly)
Canned artichoke hearts → fresh artichoke hearts, blanched and quartered (more delicate flavor, requires slight increase in bake time)

Storage & make-ahead

Wrap cooled pizza in foil or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven for 8–10 minutes or in a toaster oven until crust crisps.

Equipment

Pizza stone or steel (recommended for crispier crust) · Pizza peel (helpful for sliding dough in and out of oven)

Common Questions

Can I make the spinach cream sauce ahead of time?

Yes. Prepare the sauce up to 2 days ahead, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and reheat gently before spreading on the dough.

How do I stretch pizza dough without tearing it?

Let dough rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before stretching. Work from the center outward, using gentle pressure and letting gravity help. If it resists, rest 5 minutes and try again.
