Instructions
Creating your White Pizza with Garlic Pizza Sauce is simple with these easy steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
2. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
3. Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness.
4. Transfer to Baking Sheet: Place the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet or pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
5. Spread the Ricotta: Spoon the ricotta cheese onto the dough, spreading it evenly.
6. Add the Garlic Sauce: Drizzle the prepared garlic sauce over the ricotta layer.
7. Sprinkle the Mozzarella: Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
8. Finish with Parmesan: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the mozzarella for an extra cheesy finish.
9. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Garnish: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Optionally, garnish with fresh basil leaves for added flavor and presentation.
11. Slice and Serve: Cut into slices and serve warm.
These straightforward steps ensure that you create a delicious White Pizza with Garlic Pizza Sauce that is sure to impress.
