Made with fresh and simple ingredients, my recipe for vegetarian bruschetta pizza is bursting with flavor from gooey burrata and a balsamic drizzle. Use a store-bought pizza dough, or make your own pizza crust from scratch.

Serve it with Panzanella Toscana and Parsley Salad for a fresh Italian feast (and dip the crust in Basil Oil if you’re feeling extra).

Today, we’re celebrating reader recipes! This is a vegetarian bruschetta pizza recipe from Anouk, a foodie from the Netherlands. I was instantly drawn to her recipe because it was so simple and flavorful.

It combines the best of both worlds: the classic flavors of bruschetta and the cheesy goodness of pizza! It’s one of my favorite easy vegetarian pizza recipes to bake at home. Let’s cook!

While we love creamy burrata in this recipe, you could use buffalo mozzarella instead (it’s often easier to find). Or keep it vegan with this vegan liquid mozzarella.

To achieve a perfectly crisp bottom, preheat a baking stone or a pizza stone in the oven before placing the pizza on it. This helps to evenly distribute heat and create a crispy crust.
