Homemade pizza is a delightful culinary adventure that invites you to create your own cheesy masterpiece right in your kitchen.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
  • ¾ cup warm water (110°F)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 can (14 oz) canned tomatoes
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese
  • Your choice of toppings (pepperoni, bell peppers, etc.)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, mix warm water and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Stir in olive oil, salt, and half the flour; mix until smooth. Gradually add remaining flour until a soft dough forms.
  2. Knead: Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for about an hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Make the sauce: Combine canned tomatoes, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper in another bowl; adjust seasoning as needed.
  5. Roll out the dough: Punch down risen dough and roll into desired shape on a floured surface. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  6. Assemble: Spread sauce evenly over the dough, sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously, and add your favorite toppings.
  7. Bake: Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Bake pizza for 10-15 minutes until golden brown and bubbling. Let cool slightly before slicing.

Notes

  • Feel free to experiment with different toppings.
  • Store leftover pizza in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a crispier crust, bake on a pizza stone.
