Preparation Steps
- 1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). This will ensure your pizza cooks evenly and the crust gets crispy.

Prepare the Pizza Dough
On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
- 3
Add Sauce and Cheese
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.

Add Pepperoni
Evenly distribute the pepperoni slices over the cheese. You can add as many as you like!

Season and Drizzle
Sprinkle dried oregano, salt, and black pepper over the pizza. Drizzle olive oil on top for extra flavor.

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.

Slice and Serve
