Cheese Pizza Mini 7” Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Dough

   In a bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in warm water. Let sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. In a separate bowl, mix the flour and salt. Make a well in the center, add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

2. 2

   Knead the Dough

   Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat Oven

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) while the dough is rising.

   Shape the Pizza

   Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to a 7-inch circle. Place it on a greased pizza stone or baking sheet.

5. 5

   Add Toppings

   Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top, followed by oregano, basil, and black pepper.

   Bake the Pizza

   Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
