Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, mix the warm water and olive oil. Make sure the water is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.

  3. 3

    Form the Dough

    Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes on a floured surface until it is smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let the Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

Assembling the Pizza

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure it's hot enough for cooking the pizzas.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Pizza Base

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into smaller portions and roll each into a mini pizza base, about 6 inches in diameter.

  3. 7

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Spread a tablespoon of tomato sauce on each pizza base, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top.

  4. 8

    Season the Pizza

    Sprinkle dried oregano over the cheese and drizzle with a little olive oil for added flavor.

  5. 9

    Bake the Pizza

    Place the mini pizzas on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  6. 10

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, then slice and serve warm.
