Pizza Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using store-bought dough, let it rest according to package instructions. If making from scratch, prepare the pizza dough and let it rise until doubled in size.

Shape the Pizza
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Add Sauce and Toppings
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add the pepperoni slices on top. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano and salt.
