Instructions
Make dough or, if using store-bought dough, let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. (If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven as it heats up.)
Divide dough in half. Stretch dough out into a circle on a piece of parchment paper. (If you’re not using a pizza stone, stretch dough out onto a baking sheet brushed with some oil.)
Pre-bake each pizza by baking in the heated oven for 3 minutes. (This will help the dough to firm up and prevent it from becoming soggy when you add toppings.)
Make garlic oil by whisking together first portion of olive oil, garlic, and salt.
Toss brussels sprouts with second portion of olive oil.
Brush garlic oil on the top of each pizza crust.
Top pizzas with mozzarella cheese, brussels sprouts, bacon, and crumbled goat cheese.
Bake pizzas until mozzarella is melted and crust is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
