Brush the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over the crust.

Step 7

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust leaving a 1/2-inch border.

Step 8

Slice the fresh mozzarella cheese and distribute evenly over the sauce.

Step 9

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and place them on top of the mozzarella.

Step 10

Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes.

Step 13

Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
