Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the cauliflower pizza crust package

  2. Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet and evenly distribute the mozzarella cheese over the top.

  3. Layer the sliced pears and chopped California Dates over the cheese, and season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.

  4. Bake according to the instructions on the pizza packing, or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown. We baked the pizza for 12 minutes. 

    Tip: Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end to get the cheese a bit more browned and bubbling and to caramelize the California Dates.

  5. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh sage. Tip: Quickly pan-fry your sage for even more of a savory flavor. 

  6. Cut into 5 even slices and serve warm.
