Burrata is currently having a moment, and we couldn’t be more thrilled about that! The Italian word burrata literally translates to “buttered,” which makes a lot of sense since it melts out as soon as you cut into it. Cheese is always in style, especially when it’s as rich and gooey as this cow’s milk variety, so we rounded up a handful of reasons why you need to get your hands on some right now.

Prosciutto and Honey Burrata Pizza

This pizza is a balanced mix of creamy and crispy, salty and sweet.

If you want to try making your own pizza crust from scratch, Butternut Bakery even shows you how!
