Vodka Sauce Prosciutto Pizza with Burrata & Hot Honey

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I’ll be honest, I don’t switch up our pizza night often. Once I started making my proscuitto and mushroom pizza we fell in love with it and I kind of stopped experimenting. It’s just too good. But this night, I had random ingredients in the fridge, felt a little creative, and decided to just go for it.

And wow… this one is staying in the rotation.

It’s rich from the vodka sauce, salty from the prosciutto, fresh from the arugula and tomato, creamy from the burrata, and then finished with hot honey which just takes it over the top. It’s one of those pizzas that feels a little elevated but is honestly so easy to throw together.

Why You’ll Love This Pizza

• Sweet + salty + creamy + fresh = everything you want in one bite
• Feels fancy but uses super simple ingredients
• Perfect for a cozy night in with a glass of wine
• Comes together in under 20 minutes

Ingredients

• Pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
• Vodka sauce
• Freshly grated mozzarella
• Prosciutto
• Pesto
• Arugula
• Hot house tomato, sliced
• Burrata, torn
• Hot honey

How to Make It

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F.
2. Roll or stretch your pizza dough onto a floured surface or pizza pan.
3. Spread a layer of vodka sauce over the dough.
4. Top with freshly grated mozzarella.
5. Add slices of prosciutto evenly across the pizza.
6. Dollop pesto over the top.
7. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
8. Remove from the oven and immediately top with:
   • Fresh arugula
   • Sliced tomato
   • Torn burrata
9. Finish with a generous drizzle of hot honey.

Notes

• Freshly grating your mozzarella makes a big difference in melt and texture — highly recommend.
• Don’t skip adding the arugula and tomato after baking — it keeps everything fresh and balanced.
• Burrata > mozzarella here since we’re not baking it long enough to get that perfect melt.
• Use as much (or as little) hot honey as your heart tells you.

Perfect Pairings

This pizza is unreal with:

• A crisp white wine
• A light arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette
• Or honestly… just on its own, straight off the pan
