Step 1: Roast Garlic
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Take two whole garlic bulbs, slice off the tops, and drizzle them with olive oil. Wrap each bulb in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 30–35 minutes until they are caramelized and fragrant, with a soft texture that’s easily mashed.
Step 2: Sauté Spinach
- While the garlic is roasting, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in about 4 cups of fresh spinach and sauté for 2–3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once done, remove the skillet from heat and set your sautéed spinach aside to cool slightly.
Step 3: Make White Sauce
- In a mixing bowl, mash the roasted garlic until smooth. Then, add 1 cup of ricotta cheese along with half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, a teaspoon of dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the garlic is well incorporated, creating a creamy base for your Greek Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza.
Step 4: Assemble Pizza
- Grab your pre-made pizza crust and spread the garlic-ricotta mixture evenly over the surface, ensuring it covers the entire base. Next, layer the sautéed spinach on top, followed by the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese and crumbled feta cheese. For some extra kick, sprinkle a few crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
Step 5: Bake
- Place the assembled pizza on a baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone in your oven. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is beautifully bubbly and slightly browned. Just wait until you see that golden crust - it’s the sign that your Greek Roasted Garlic Spinach White Pizza is ready.
Step 6: Finishing Touches
- Once out of the oven, allow the pizza to cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and freshness. Slice into wedges for easy serving, and revel in the creamy, savory flavors bursting from each piece.
