On my last post I showed you how to easily make your own dulce de leche at home (click here for the full recipe --> Homemade Dulce de Leche). Today I am excited to share a gorgeous and heavenly way of using that sweet spread: pizza dough is baked with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt until crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Then covered with a generous amount of dulce de leche and finally topped with fresh juicy blueberries:
The salt on the pizza dough and the slight tartness of the blueberries offset the super sweet caramel like dulce de leche forming the perfect balance!
I kept this really easy by buying fresh pizza dough at a local Italian deli. Also, I cooked my dulce de leche the night before so the pizza came together in no time!

ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! I love dulche de leche.
ReplyDeleteSounds good, must try it soon.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good, my mouth is watering. I wish I had stumbled across this when blueberries were still in season. I bet it just doesn't taste the same with frozen ones. =[ Bookmarking to come back to in about 9 months. I just hope I remember by then!
