Instructions
Making White Pizza with Garlic Pizza Sauce is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer it to a baking sheet or pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
3. Make Garlic Sauce: In a small saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
4. Spread Sauce: Brush the garlic sauce evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Add Cheeses: Spread ricotta cheese evenly over the sauce, followed by mozzarella cheese and then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
6. Bake: Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven (or onto the hot pizza stone). Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
7. Cool: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
8. Slice and Serve: Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, slice the pizza, and serve hot.
