  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

    Prepare the Dough

    On a floured surface, stretch or roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and shape.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce

    Spread the house-made red sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Tear the fresh mozzarella into chunks and distribute them evenly over the sauce.

  5. 5

    Add Toppings

    Layer the sliced tomatoes and pepperoni on top of the cheese, then sprinkle the fresh basil leaves over all the toppings.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to a baking sheet or pizza stone and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  7. 7

    Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then slice and serve hot.
