Dough and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Baking

1

Prepare the Dough

In a bowl, mix warm water and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Create a well in the center, add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

2

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

3

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

4

Shape the Pizzetta

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-inch circle. Place on a baking sheet or pizza stone.

5

Add Toppings

Spread tomato sauce evenly on each pizzetta. Top with mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, and sprinkle with oregano.

6

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

7

Garnish and Serve

Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and serve hot.
