Butternut squash, burrata, & Brussels sprout pizza with pancetta and pepitas is a mouthful of awesomeness! This is my ode to Winter and Fall on a pizza.

This pizza has it all!

It is my favorite wintery things all on one pizza.

You can make your own crust or purchase a store-bought pizza dough.

I highly recommend my own easy pizza dough recipe.

You can make it during the week and store it in the refrigerator until the day you want pizza.

I think that as the pizza dough ages in the fridge, it tastes even better.

Let’s talk about what is on this pizza!

It starts with a little melted butter, minced garlic, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes.

That goes all over the dough.

Then we start to layer all the toppings:

• Roasted butternut squash
• Shaved Brussels sprouts
• Cubed pancetta
• Pumpkin seeds aka roasted pepitas
• Fresh sage
• Burrata cheese

Your house is going to smell like the holidays all over again.

Mike smelled this pizza and said, “Oh, this is a Stef pizza, not a Mike pizza.”

Fine. More for me.

Butternut squash, burrata, & Brussels sprout pizza with pancetta and pepitas is so well-rounded in flavors.

This pizza is salty, sweet, and crunchy.

I highly recommend using the frozen and steam-able cut butternut squash.

That will save you loads of time.

Roast your own butternut squash if you want. Be sure to save a little bit to top this pizza.

The edges of the pancetta and the shaved Brussels sprouts get a little crips and charred.

The burrata melts into stringy pools of cheesy goodness.

I would highly recommend topping the finished pizza with crushed red pepper flakes and a drizzle of balsamic syrup.

Let’s all get on board with all the Brussels sprout and butternut squash recipes before we move on to the cookies and candy cane recipes.
