Crust:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 envelope fast-rising dry yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup very warm water (115 degrees to 120 degrees F)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Herbed Ricotta:

Recipe



Position oven rack in lowest position. Heat oven to 450 degrees F.

Sprinkle pizza pan (15 3/4-inch) with cornmeal. Pat dough over pan, stretching and shaping to make 1/2-inch high rim around edge.

Combine ricotta, parsley, basil and salt in small bowl. Spread evenly over the whole crust. Cover with the Ham and Onion Topping.

Bake pizza on bottom rack for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through and crust is golden brown.
