01
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with foil. Toss the carrot slices with a teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and some pepper. Do the same with the red onion slices, keeping them on separate sheets. Pop them in the oven and roast for about 10 minutes.

Step 2
While the veggies are roasting, mix together the goat cheese, egg yolk, garlic, and lemon zest in a bowl until smooth. Season with a little salt and pepper, then set it aside.

Step 3
Once the carrots and onions are out of the oven, drizzle the carrots with honey and give them a gentle toss. Turn up the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 4
Spread the goat cheese mixture evenly over your pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges. Scatter the honey-roasted carrots over the top, then sprinkle the red onions on.

Step 5
Bake the pizza for 13 to 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and just starting to brown. While that’s happening, toss the arugula with the remaining olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 6
When the pizza’s done, slice it up and either pile the dressed arugula on top or serve it on the side. Enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This pizza combines the natural sweetness of honey-roasted carrots with the tangy creaminess of goat cheese. The flavors balance beautifully, offering something both comforting and a little different from the usual toppings. It’s a great way to enjoy seasonal vegetables in a fun, flavorful way.
How to serve
Serve this pizza fresh out of the oven with a simple green salad dressed in lemon vinaigrette. A light white wine or sparkling water with a splash of citrus pairs well to keep the meal bright and refreshing.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in a skillet or oven to keep the crust crisp rather than using a microwave, which can make it soggy.
