How to Make Pizza with Eggplant

Instructions

• 1

  Broil the eggplant
  
  The first step towards making pizza with eggplant is to cut the eggplant into 1/3-inch thick rounds. Grab a foil-lined large baking sheet and arrange the pieces of eggplant in a layer. You are now required to brush the eggplant pieces with oil before seasoning them with salt. Broil the eggplant about 2 ½ inches from heat for about 3 to 8 minutes on each side or until the side turns golden brown.

  Make dough
  
  The yeast needs to be dissolved in warm water before you blend salt, a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and flour in a food processor. While the processor is on, you need to add the whole yeast mixture and blend it until it forms a ball. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for five minutes. Coat the dough with olive oil. You may now leave the dough in a bowl covered with plastic wrap for about 60 to 75 minutes and allow it to rise.

  Preheat the oven
  
  While the dough is rising, you can preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.

  Shape and stretch
  
  You may now spread flour over the dough and shape and stretch into an about 12-inch round before pouring a lot of baker’s peel over the dough.

  Assemble the pizza
  
  Sprinkle about ¼ of the cheese over the dough before covering it with eggplant and then sprinkling the remaining cheese over it. Put a skillet over medium heat and cook red pepper and garlic. Once evenly cooked, you may spoon it over the eggplant. Having lined up the edge of the peel with far edge of stone, you may put the pizza in the oven and let it bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until it is crisp.
