Make your own Pizza at home!

Description

Every once in a while, my parents and I decide to make our own pizza at home instead of going out and purchasing a full one ourselves. We tend to do multiple types of pizza, with one being cheese and pepperoni, primarily being for me and the other one adding spices and other toppings, just for my parents. I always enjoy the process of making pizzas with my mom and dad!

You will need:


Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Let dough rest outside of its packaging at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  3. Put the dough onto a tray (use parchment paper if needs be), and spread it into a circle, leaving about a 1-inch border for the crust.
  4. With a spoon, apply the tomato sauce to the dough, spreading it evenly while avoiding the edges.
  5. Sprinkle handfuls of cheese over the sauce until its fully covered.
  6. Add the toppings you chose, putting them evenly across the surface of the cheese.
  7. Take the pizza and bake it in the oven for about 15 to 20 minutes, checking every once in a while until the crust is golden and the cheese appears to be bubbly.
  8. When its done, carefully remove it from the oven and leave it on a flat surface to cool for about two minutes, that way you don't burn yourself as easily.
  9. Use a pizza cutter to slice your baked pizza into 8 pieces.
