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.

  2. 2

    Add Sauce

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

  3. 3

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then layer the pepperoni slices on top. Add a sprinkle of dried oregano and salt to taste.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to a baking sheet or pizza stone and drizzle with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
