Ingredients:

  • 1 lb pizza dough, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup leftover turkey gravy, thickened
  • 1/2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1.5 cups cooked turkey breast, shredded or cubed
  • 1 cup leftover stuffing, shredded into small clusters
  • 1.5 cups low-moisture mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 2 tbsp fresh chives or parsley, minced

Instructions:

  1. Place a pizza stone or baking steel on the middle rack and preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C) for at least 45 minutes to ensure maximum thermal mass. Dust a pizza peel lightly with cornmeal.
  2. Stretch the room-temperature dough into a 14-inch circle. Spread the thickened turkey gravy in a thin, even layer across the dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.
  3. Layer half of the shredded mozzarella first. Evenly distribute the shredded turkey and stuffing clusters. Top with the remaining mozzarella to secure the toppings, and drop marble-sized dollops of cranberry sauce into the open spaces.
  4. Slide the pizza onto the preheated stone. Bake for 10–12 minutes until the crust is blistered and golden brown, and the cheese is bubbling and charred in spots.
  5. Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to rest for 3 minutes to let the gravy base set. Garnish with minced fresh chives or parsley before slicing.
