Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball Pizza dough
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 150 grams Ham, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 handful Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
On a lightly floured surface, stretch out the pizza dough to a 12-inch circle, ensuring an even thickness.
Carefully transfer the dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Using a spoon, spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce to cover the entire surface.
Arrange the sliced ham evenly on top of the cheese.
Drizzle the olive oil over the toppings and sprinkle the oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.
Top the pizza with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before slicing.
Cut the pizza into 8 slices and serve immediately.
