Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
-
In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle olive oil and add the sliced eggplant, zucchini, yellow bell pepper, red bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic. Season with salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried basil. Sauté the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 10-12 minutes. Set aside.
-
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness.
-
Remove the hot pizza stone or baking sheet from the oven and carefully transfer the rolled-out pizza dough onto it.
-
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
-
Arrange the sautéed vegetables on top of the tomato sauce, distributing them evenly.
-
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the vegetables, covering the entire pizza.
-
Place the pizza back into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Once cooked, remove the Ratatouille Pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
-
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving. Enjoy the flavors of France in every bite!
