Quattro formaggi on a pizza base

Quattro formaggi is one of the pizzas in our café: four cheeses, pear and walnuts on a griddle-baked base. With a bag of Lega pizza bases you can make it at home on a weeknight. The garlic cream cheese takes the place of the tomato sauce.

Serves
2 pizzas
Time
20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 Lega pizza bases
  • 6 tbsp Kremost med kvitlauk (garlic cream cheese)
  • 80 g Stavsfjell, grated
  • 80 g Heimros, grated
  • 50 g Knubbost naturell, crumbled
  • 1 pear, thinly sliced
  • 1 handful of walnuts, roughly chopped
  • Fresh basil
  • A little honey (optional)

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220 °C.
  2. Hold the bases under running water and wet both sides. Shake off the water and put them on a tray lined with baking paper.
  3. Spread a thick layer of cream cheese over each base, right out to the edge.
  4. Scatter over the Stavsfjell, Heimros and Knubbost. Lay the pear slices on top and sprinkle with the walnuts.
  5. Bake in the middle of the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the edge is golden.
  6. Cut into pieces, add a little fresh basil and drizzle with a little honey if you like.

Tip

Wetting the base before baking is what makes it crisp. Do not skip it.
