Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 250°C (482°F). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and shape.

  2. 2

    Add Sauce

    Spread the house-made tomato sauce evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough, leaving a border around the edges.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the tomato sauce.

  4. 4

    Add Pepperoni

    Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly on top of the mozzarella cheese.

  5. 5

    Season

    Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the pizza, and sprinkle dried oregano and salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Transfer the pizza to a preheated pizza stone or baking tray and bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

  7. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice, and serve immediately.
