Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (store-bought or homemade, about 250g) Pizza dough
- 1 cup (fresh, canned, or frozen) Corn kernels
- 1.5 cups (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 5 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon (for dusting) All-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a 10–12 inch circle. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about half an inch of space around the edges for the crust.
In a small bowl, toss the corn kernels with olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper for added flavor.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce as the first layer.
Evenly distribute the seasoned corn kernels across the pizza, then add the remaining mozzarella cheese on top.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2–3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your homemade Corn and Mozzarella Pizza!
