Ingredients
Instructions
-
Thaw the puffed pastry on the counter for 45 minutes or in the fridge for several hours.
-
When thawed, carefully open the sheet, then slice it in half down the middle. Place both halves on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a baking mat.
-
Preheat oven to 415 degrees, then start on the pizza toppings.
-
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute mushrooms and garlic in the butter for 2 minutes, then pour in the wine and season with salt and pepper. Allow to continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, until mushrooms are cooked down and liquid is mostly gone. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
To build the pizzas: Brush a thin layer of olive oil in the center part of each half of puffed pastry.
-
On each half, sprinkle on half the cheese so that it covers all but a 1/2 inch border all around the pastry.
-
On one half, sprinkle on the cooked mushrooms. On the other half, sprinkle on the halved tomatoes. Press both mushrooms and tomatoes lightly into the cheese.
-
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes pastry could go crazy and puff up in areas here and there, but don't worry! It'll be fine.
-
Remove from the oven and sprinkle the goat cheese crumbles on both halves. Allow the pizzas to sit for 10 minutes. If there are any big air bubbles/puffs, just give them a little smush or wait and they'll calm down.
-
Sprinkle on basil, slice into pieces, and serve!
