Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve 1 packet of active dry yeast in 1 cup of warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon honey to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
Gradually add 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, mixing until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Punch down the risen dough and roll it out on a floured surface to about 12-14 inches in diameter.
Spread 0.75 cup of salt-free tomato sauce evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, and 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes over the sauce.
Distribute 1 cup unsalted mozzarella cheese, 0.5 cup unsalted Parmesan cheese, 0.5 cup low sodium ricotta cheese, and 0.5 cup low sodium goat cheese evenly over the pizza.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated stone or baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice into 8 pieces, and serve.
