Creating Delicious Pepperoni Ricotta Pizza is easy when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.
2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pre-made pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
3. Add Olive Oil: Brush the olive oil over the surface of the dough to add flavor and prevent sogginess.
4. Spread Marinara Sauce: Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Layer Ricotta Cheese: Spoon dollops of ricotta cheese over the sauce, ensuring even distribution for creaminess in every bite.
6. Sprinkle Mozzarella: Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ricotta, adding to the cheesy goodness.
7. Add Pepperoni: Arrange the sliced pepperoni over the cheese, covering the pizza generously.
8. Season: Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the top for added flavor.
9. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
10. Garnish and Cool: Once out of the oven, let the pizza cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
11. Slice and Serve: Cut the pizza into wedges and serve hot.
