Classic Cheese Pizza
A timeless favorite, this classic cheese pizza features a crispy crust topped with rich tomato sauce and a generous layer of melted mozzarella.
Ingredients
- 1 lb pizza dough
- ½ cup pizza sauce
- 2 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp dried oregano (optional)
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 450 F (230 C) and lightly grease a pizza pan or baking sheet.
- Stretch or roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and transfer it to the prepared pan.
- Brush the edges of the dough with olive oil, then spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
- Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve, optionally garnished with oregano or red pepper flakes.
