🥘Ingredients

For the Dough

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp instant yeast
1 tsp sugar
3/4 cup warm water

For the Sauce

1 cup tomato sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
salt and pepper to taste

Toppings

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 bell pepper, sliced
1/2 onion, sliced
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 oz pepperoni

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat the oven to 475°F.
2This will ensure the pizza cooks evenly and the crust becomes crispy.
3In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, yeast, and sugar.
4Gradually add the warm water and mix until a dough forms.
5Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 2 minutes until smooth.
6Let the dough rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
7While the dough is resting, prepare the sauce.
8In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce, minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
Set aside.
9Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness, around 1/4 inch.
10Transfer the dough to a pizza pan or baking sheet.
11Spread the sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
12Add the toppings evenly across the pizza.
13Start with the cheese, then add the bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, and pepperoni.
14This will create a balanced flavor profile and ensure even cooking.
15Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
16The edges of the cheese should be slightly browned, indicating it is fully cooked.
17Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
18This allows the cheese to set, making it easier to serve.
19Slice the pizza into 8 equal pieces and serve hot.
