Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
Add Sauce
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Add Cheese and Toppings
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce. If making pepperoni pizza, evenly distribute the pepperoni slices on top of the cheese.
Season and Bake
Drizzle olive oil over the top, and sprinkle Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Cool and Serve
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve hot.
