- For the crust: In a small bowl, whisk together the yeast, sugar and warm water and let it stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the dough blade, combine the cake flour, all-purpose flour and salt and pulse 3 or 4 times.
- Whisk 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into the yeast mixture.
- With the motor running, slowly add the yeast mixture into the flour mixture, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding more.
- Pulse the machine 10 to 15 times to knead the dough.
- When ready, the dough should clean the insides of the bowl but will be slightly sticky.
- Coat the inside of a large bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Dust your hands with flour and remove the dough from the food processor.
- Form the dough into a ball and place in the greased bowl.
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- While the dough rises, roast the tomatoes and garlic.
- Preheat oven to 350 F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Spread tomato halves out in an even layer and place garlic cloves in the center of the pan.
- Drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake until golden brown and bursting, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Finely chop cooled garlic.
- Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 450 F. Roll the dough out on a floured surface, making it however thin youd like it.
- Sprinkle a pizza pan or preheated pizza stone with cornmeal.
- Lay the crust on top and parbake it for 7 minutes, or until puffed and set but not yet browned.
- Then remove it from the oven.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta and chopped roasted garlic.
- Spread this over the crust in an even layer.
- Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan, then evenly distribute the tomatoes over top.
- Finish with a sprinkle of fresh thyme.
- Return to oven and bake another 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
- Slice and enjoy.
