Preparation Steps

Prepare the Dough
Start by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out your pizza dough to your desired thickness on a floured surface and place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet.

Spread the Lemon Ricotta
In a mixing bowl, combine the lemon ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Add the Mozzarella
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the lemon ricotta layer.

Incorporate the Garlic
Distribute the minced garlic evenly on top of the mozzarella layer for added flavor.

Add Green Olives
Scatter the sliced green olives on top of the cheese and garlic layers.

Bake the Pizza
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

Finish with Basil
Once the pizza is out of the oven, sprinkle the chopped fresh basil leaves on top for a burst of freshness.
