Pizza With Figs & Garlic Cream Recipe
Step 1: Divide pizza dough into four balls and allow to come to room temperature, covered with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel.
Step 2: Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Liberally dust 2 baking sheets with flour (gluten-free all-purpose, if required).
Step 3: Make the garlic cream. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine garlic, olive oil and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is soft and just turning golden brown at the edges.
Step 4: Stir in coconut cream; simmer until thickened slightly, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and blend with an immersion blender until just combined but still chunky.
Step 5: Liberally dust countertop with flour. Working with one ball of dough at a time, roll (or stretch by hand) into a circle about 10″ across. Place on prepared baking sheet. Top each with one-quarter of the garlic cream, spreading evenly to within 1/2″ of the edge. Top with remaining toppings.
Step 6: Bake, switching baking sheets halfway, for about 15 minutes or until browned on the bottom. Broil each pizza in upper third of oven until crust is browned.
