We liked this pizza but not as much as the canadian bacon one (also posted by Dancer). I added a few pieces of canadian bacon, skipped the fennel and sugar. I cooked it for 35 minutes and it was slightly overcooked. I should have looked at the 30 minutes mark. I'll make this again but think I'll cook it at a higher temp. in the center of the oven for a shorter time. Thanks, Dancer.
