Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made dough (14-16 oz) Pizza dough
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
  • 1.5 cups (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
  • 0.25 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
  • 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

Lightly dust your countertop with flour and stretch or roll the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Make sure it's even and not too thick.

Step 3

Sprinkle a baking sheet or pizza peel with the cornmeal to prevent sticking, then transfer the dough onto the prepared surface.

Step 4

Brush the surface of the dough with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to help it brown and add flavor.

Step 5

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges for the crust.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza sauce, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 7

Sprinkle the dried oregano and garlic powder over the cheese for added flavor.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Step 9

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 11

Slice into wedges and enjoy your homemade Easy Cheese Pizza!
