Pizza Ingredients

Method

Pizza Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). This will ensure your pizza crust gets crispy.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Crust

    If using a gluten-free crust, follow the package instructions for pre-baking if required. For the traditional crust, place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce

    Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle shredded mozzarella or Daiya vegan cheese over the sauce, covering it evenly.

  5. 5

    Add Toppings

    Add your choice of toppings on top of the cheese. Be creative and add as many or as few as you like.

  6. 6

    Season the Pizza

    Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the top, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    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.

  8. 8

    Cool and Slice

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
