Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Whole wheat pizza dough
- 1 cup Tomato sauce
- 1 cup Low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Roll out the whole wheat pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until it reaches approximately 12 inches in diameter.
Brush the rolled-out dough lightly with olive oil, ensuring a thin and even coat.
Spread the tomato sauce over the pizza dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder uniformly over the tomato sauce for flavoring.
Evenly distribute the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce layer.
Carefully transfer the prepared pizza dough onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet using a pizza peel or a flat tray.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove from the oven and immediately top with fresh basil leaves to allow them to gently wilt from the heat.
Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately, enjoying each slice of your low fat margarita pizza.
