Ingredients
Scale
Pizza Base
- 1 batch crazy dough
- Olive oil for brushing
Toppings
- 1/2 cup (4oz/120g) pizza sauce
- 2 cups (6oz/80g) shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup (4oz/120g) pepperoni
- 1 teaspoon Italian dry herbs
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (225°C). Place a pizza stone or a flat baking tray inside to heat up thoroughly.
- Roll Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the crazy dough base into an approximately 10-inch round shape.
- Prepare Base: Transfer the rolled-out pizza base to a flat-edged baking tray dusted with flour, which helps the pizza slide easily later.
- Add Sauce: Brush olive oil over the dough lightly, then spoon the pizza sauce evenly across the surface.
- Add Cheese and Toppings: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then top with pepperoni slices and sprinkle Italian dry herbs. Feel free to add extra toppings like olives, onions, or bell peppers if desired.
- Transfer to Oven: Slide the pizza directly from the tray onto the preheated pizza stone or baking tray in the oven. If the pizza is too loaded to slide, bake it as is on the tray.
- Bake: Bake the pizza for 9-12 minutes until the crust is slightly risen, crisp, and golden, and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Serve: Remove from oven, slice, and serve immediately for best taste and texture. Enjoy your homemade pizza!
Notes
- If your dough is sticky, dust with a little extra flour when rolling.
- You can customize the toppings freely according to your preference.
- Using a pizza stone helps achieve a crispier crust.
- Keep an eye on the pizza during baking to avoid burning.
- For a vegetarian option, skip the pepperoni and add veggies instead.
