Directions
PIZZA DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice acorn squash into half-moons (no need to peel!). Toss with olive oil and season with salt & pepper. Place on parchment-lined baking tray. Roast until golden and tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While squash roasts, make the garlic white sauce (below).
Turn oven up to 500°F. Dust pizza dough with flour. Roll or stretch dough into a 12”-13” circle.
Spread garlic white sauce over dough. Top with Beemster, squash, pancetta, and sage leaves. Gently transfer to a pizza stone or onto the back of a baking tray. Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
SAUCE DIRECTIONS
In a medium saucepan heat butter over low.
Add garlic clove and sauté for 1 minute or until garlic becomes fragrant.
Stir in flour. Cook 1-2 minutes.
Slowly whisk in heavy cream. Simmer (being careful not to boil) for 5-7 minutes or until sauce becomes thick. Season well with salt and pepper.Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bring butter, milk and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to low and add the flour. Stir in the flour, using a wooden spoon, until the dough begins to dry out and pulls away from the sides of the saucepan, about 2 min.
