Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and shape. Place the dough on a pizza stone or baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Add Sauce

    Spread the red pizza sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  3. 3

    Prepare Garlic

    Mince the garlic cloves and sauté them in olive oil over medium heat until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Spread the sautéed garlic evenly over the sauce. Then, add the mozzarella cheese on top.

  5. 5

    Bake the Pizza

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

  6. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven. Sprinkle with salt, crushed red pepper flakes, and fresh basil leaves to taste. Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
