Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made 12-inch crust or homemade portion Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes
- 6 whole leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat up.
On a clean surface, roll out the pizza dough to a 12-inch round. If using pre-made crust, proceed to the next step.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and minced garlic. Brush this mixture evenly over the surface of the dough.
Spread the ricotta cheese onto the dough in an even layer, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the ricotta layer.
Top the pizza with grated Parmesan cheese, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheeses are bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
