Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cups cubed butternut squash or pumpkin

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon chili powder, divided

1/2 pound homemade or store-bought pizza dough

2 tablespoons fig preserves (optional)

1 honeycrisp apple, thinly sliced

8 ounces burrata cheese

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

1 large handful baby kale or arugula

Crispy sage leaves, for topping

Toasted pumpkin seeds, for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Toss cubed butternut squash with olive oil, honey, and half the chili powder. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes until golden and tender.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare pizza dough by stretching it onto a lightly floured surface.
  4. If using fig preserves, spread them over the dough as a base.
  5. Layer roasted squash, thin apple slices, and torn burrata over the dough.
  6. Sprinkle parmesan cheese and the remaining chili powder on top.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbling.
  8. Top with baby kale or arugula, crispy sage leaves, and toasted pumpkin seeds before slicing and serving.

Notes

You can substitute pumpkin for butternut squash.

Fresh mozzarella or ricotta can replace burrata.

Try gorgonzola or blue cheese for a sharper flavor.

Drizzle balsamic glaze on top for added sweetness.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven.

Pre-cut squash works to save time.

Other good apples include Pink Lady or Fuji.

Grilling instead of baking adds a smoky flavor.
