Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 medium Garlic cloves
- 100 grams Part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 150 grams Tomato sauce
- 8 whole Fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 20 grams Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F). Place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat up as the oven preheats.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough into a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper to easily move it later.
In a small bowl, crush or finely mince the garlic cloves.
Add olive oil to the garlic and mix well to create a garlic-infused oil.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the garlic olive oil mixture over the tomato sauce, ensuring even distribution.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese over the pizza.
Season the pizza with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle the top with fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese.
Slice the pizza into 8 pieces and serve immediately.
