Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pizza crust
- 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven to heat up as it preheats.
Place the pre-made pizza crust on a clean surface. Lightly brush the edges of the crust with olive oil to create a golden, crispy crust.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce in an even layer. If desired, add grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
Sprinkle the dried oregano evenly over the top of the pizza for a touch of herbaceous flavor.
Carefully transfer the prepared pizza onto the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 3-5 minutes before slicing.
Cut into kid-friendly slices and serve warm. Enjoy your quick and delicious kids' cheese pizza!
