Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
Step 2
On a floured surface, roll out the whole wheat pizza dough to your desired thickness, ideally about 12 inches in diameter for a thin crust.
Step 3
Lightly spray a baking sheet or pizza peel with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared baking sheet or preheated pizza stone.
Step 5
Arrange the sliced low-fat mozzarella evenly across the surface of the dough, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges for the crust.
Step 6
Lay the thinly sliced Roma tomatoes on top of the cheese, ensuring an even distribution.
Step 7
Sprinkle the pizza with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly for a minute or two.
Step 10
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the pizza for added flavor.
Step 11
Tear or chiffonade fresh basil leaves and scatter them over the top of the pizza.
Step 12
Slice and serve your Low Fat Caprese Pizza warm with a side of fresh mixed greens if desired. Enjoy!
