FRENCH BREAD PIZZA - OAMC

These are great to keep in the freezer for quick meals. Healthier than pre-frozen french bread pizzas, and because these are baked from frozen, the bread crusts turn out nice and crispy while the inside remains soft (but surprisingly NOT soggy from the sauce, like I was initially afraid of). The sauce is super quick and easy to make and is derived from a recipe I got from my grandma...I used to eat it with a spoon when I was younger. Note that if you use regular table salt, as opposed to kosher, you should decrease the amount. The pizza toppings listed below are what I use, but of course, you can sub any toppings you like.

PESTO AND MOZZARELLA FRENCH BREAD PIZZA



Pesto and Mozzarella French Bread Pizza image

Basil is the classic choice for this alternative to red sauce, but blend in any tender, flavorful herbs or greens like parsley, spinach, or arugula depending on what you have around. This pesto recipe doubles easily and freezes well, too: Transfer the finished pesto to an ice cube tray and freeze until firm. Pop the frozen pesto into a resealable bag, and keep it in the freezer for up to three months. Defrost whenever a pasta or pizza craving calls, though you can certainly use store-bought pesto to make things even easier. Fresh mozzarella creates excellent cheese pulls, but feel free to play around with other soft cheeses: A crumbling of feta or goat cheese would make delicious variations.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups lightly packed basil leaves or other tender herbs or greens such as parsley, arugula, baby spinach, or a combination
1 garlic clove
1/4 cup pine nuts or almonds
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, grated
1 loaf soft French bread, split lengthwise, insides mostly dug out
8 ounces mozzarella, low-moisture and part-skim, or fresh (drained and patted dry, if necessary) thinly sliced
Red-pepper flakes, dried oregano or grated Parmesan, or a combination, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the pesto: Heat the oven to 450 degrees with a rack in the middle position. Combine basil, 1 garlic clove and pine nuts in a food processor, and pulse until finely chopped. With the machine running, stream in the olive oil. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add Parmesan and salt, and pulse to combine.
  • Prepare the pizza: Combine the 1/4 cup olive oil and grated garlic in a small pot over medium. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the garlic starts to sizzle (but doesn't begin to brown), 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Place the French bread cut side up on a baking sheet. Brush cut sides with garlic oil. Bake until edges are golden, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Spread the pesto over the two halves all the way to the edges and top with the cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is evenly melted, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to broil and broil (watch carefully!) until the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes more. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Top with red-pepper flakes, oregano and more Parmesan, if you like.
