Zucchini and Zucchini Blossom Pizza with Nobili Mozzarella

Pizza of the Month – May

May brings the freshest colors and scents of spring into the kitchen. The days grow longer, the garden begins to fill up, and the desire for light, fragrant, and vegetable-rich dishes naturally increases.
Our May Pizza is born from this atmosphere: simple, bright, and irresistibly fresh.

Nobili Mozzarella adds creaminess and a delicate flavor that ties all the ingredients together. Thinly sliced zucchini brings natural sweetness and a soft texture. The zucchini flowers complete the pizza with a lightness that already tastes like summer.
A combination that celebrates the season without being heavy, perfect for both an outdoor lunch and a quick yet special dinner.

Ingredients for 2 round pizzas (28–30 cm)

  • 500 g of pizza dough
  • 250 g of fresh Nobili Mozzarella
  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 6–8 fresh zucchini flowers
  • Extra virgin olive oil to taste
  • Salt, pepper
  • (Optional) A few fresh basil leaves

How to prepare the May Pizza

  1. Prepare the zucchini
    Wash the zucchini and slice them into thin rounds. For a more rounded flavor, you can sauté them for 2 minutes in a pan with a drizzle of oil; otherwise, you can use them raw for an even lighter result.
  2. Cleaning the zucchini flowers
    Gently remove the inner pistil without breaking the flowers. Set them aside.
  3. Roll out the base
    Roll out the dough and place it on two lightly oiled baking sheets or on a well-heated baking stone.
  4. Add Nobili Mozzarella
    Cut the mozzarella into slices or pieces, well-drained, and distribute it evenly over the base.
  5. First baking
    Bake at 230–250 °C for 7–8 minutes, until the mozzarella begins to melt and the edges start to brown.
  6. Finish with zucchini and zucchini flowers
    Remove the pizza from the oven, add the zucchini rounds and the opened zucchini flowers on top. Return to the oven for 2–3 minutes to warm everything without overcooking the flowers.
  7. Final touch
    If desired, add a grind of pepper and a few fresh basil leaves.

An extra idea

Serve it with a fresh lemonade, a flavored drink, or a fragrant white wine: it’s the perfect pizza to bring spring directly to the table.
