Pizza topping recipe
Pizza toppings are the flavorful ingredients that adorn the dough and sauce of a pizza. They can vary widely, with popular choices including pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, and bell peppers. Toppings are key to customizing the taste and texture of your pizza, allowing you to create a personalized culinary masterpiece. Whether you prefer a classic Margherita or an adventurous BBQ chicken, pizza toppings are the creative canvas for crafting your perfect pie.
Ingredients
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
- 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1/4 cup sliced red onions
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- Red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
- Olive oil for brushing
Instructions
- 1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
- Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. If using a pizza stone, transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy transfer.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Layer the pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, black olives, and red onions evenly on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the toppings.
- Sprinkle dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes (if using) over the pizza for extra flavor.
- If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated stone in the oven. If not using a stone, place the pizza on a baking sheet.
- Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
- Remove from the oven, let it cool for a minute, slice, and enjoy your homemade pizza!
