Time 54m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

5 slices low-sodium bacon
½ teaspoon olive oil
½ onion, thinly sliced
1 (16 ounce) package refrigerated pizza dough (such as Trader Joe's®)
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cooking spray
1 (6 ounce) package fresh baby spinach

Steps:

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble into small pieces.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent and starting to brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat; transfer to a bowl.
Roll out pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and press into the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a well seasoned 10-inch cast iron skillet. Fold the edges of the dough under and crimp like a pie.
Mix ricotta cheese and garlic powder together in a bowl; spread over the bottom of the crust. Scatter bacon, onion, mozzarella cheese, and black pepper on top.
Place cast iron skillet over high heat until mozzarella cheese starts to melt, about 3 minutes.
Transfer skillet to the preheated oven; bake pizza until crust is lightly browned, about 18 minutes.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat with cooking spray. Add spinach; cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess moisture. Place spinach over pizza; slice into 8 wedges.

Tips:

For a crispy crust, preheat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the dough.
Use a well-seasoned skillet to prevent the pizza from sticking.
Don't overcrowd the skillet with toppings. This will make the pizza soggy.
Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
If you don't have a skillet, you can also make this pizza in a regular oven. Just preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
