Instructions:

    Step 1
  • Preheat your oven to its highest setting (usually around 475°F or 250°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
  • Step 2
  • Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If using a pizza stone, transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper.
  • Step 3
  • Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  • Step 4
  • Arrange the sliced tomatoes on top of the sauce.
  • Step 5
  • Add the fresh mozzarella cheese on top of the tomatoes.
  • Step 6
  • Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the pizza, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Step 7
  • Carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto a baking sheet or pizza peel if you have one. If you're using a pizza stone, transfer the parchment paper and pizza onto the hot stone in the oven.
  • Step 8
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.
  • Step 9
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately scatter fresh basil leaves on top.
  • Step 10
  • Slice your homemade Pizza Margherita and serve hot. Buon appetito!
