Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.

Roll out the Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a greased pizza pan or a pizza peel if using a stone.

Add Sauce
Spread the San Marzano tomato sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Add Cheese
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

Arrange the hand-sliced pepperoni over the cheese, covering as much of the surface as desired.
