Ingredients

2 cups/500 ml lukewarm water
1 cube or 2 tablespoons/30 ml fresh yeast
4 cups/1 L all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons/30 ml extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon/5 ml salt
1 recipe Pizza Dough
10 grapes, halved
1/4 cup/50 ml pine nuts
Sugar, for sprinkling
1 recipe Pizza Dough
1 apple, peeled, cored and sliced
2 ounces/75 g Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup/125 ml walnuts
Honey, for drizzling
1 recipe Pizza Dough
3 tablespoons/45 ml mascarpone cheese, or as much as you like
3 tablespoons/45 ml chocolate-hazelnut spread, or as much as you like (recommended: Nutella)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing dough
Salt

Steps:

For the dough: Add the water to a bowl. Then add the yeast a little at a time and break up the cube of yeast with your hands. Let the yeast fully dissolve in the warm water and let stand for 2 minutes.
Add the flour on a smooth work surface and create a well in the center of the flour. Slowly add the yeast-water mixture, olive oil, and salt until the flour has absorbed the liquid. Knead the dough until the mixture becomes an even dough consistency. If necessary, add a little more flour to absorb any excess liquid.
Divide the dough into 4 equal portions to make individual-size pizzas. Place on a lightly-floured surface or pan and cover with a cloth. Let rest for about an hour at room temperature or until the dough has doubled in size. Yield: 4 servings
For the grape and pine nut pizza: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stretch out the dough and roll out on a lightly-floured surface. Place the grapes cut-side down on the dough. Add the pine nuts and sprinkle with sugar. Bake for approximately 15 minutes.
For the apple and Gorgonzola pizza: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stretch out the dough and roll out on a lightly-floured surface. Top the dough with apples, Gorgonzola cheese, walnuts, and drizzle with honey. Bake for approximately 15 minutes.
For the mascarpone and chocolate-hazelnut pizza: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stretch out the dough and roll out on a lightly-floured surface. Spread the mascarpone cheese on 1/2 the pizza dough and on the 1/2 spread the chocolate-hazelnut spread. Fold over. Pinch and roll the opposite ends together. Lightly brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for approximately 15 minutes.
