Instructions:
- Place a pizza stone on the bottom rack of the cold oven. Set the oven to its highest temperature (ideally 500°F fan-forced) and preheat for 1 hour.
- Use your hands to press, pat and stretch the dough ball out to form a 9½ in. circle. Drizzle with the oil and top with the basil leaves, fior di latte, gorgonzola and quartered figs.
- Carefully transfer the pizza to the hot pizza stone and bake for 8–10 minutes, until the crust is golden and cooked through, and the cheese is melted.
- Top the pizza with the prosciutto and drizzle with a little honey. Finish with the hazelnuts and a little black pepper, and serve.
