Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- 1 cup No-salt-added tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium turkey pepperoni
- 1 cup Low-sodium mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, instant yeast, and sugar.
Step 3
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Step 4
Knead the dough for about 5-8 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rest in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
Step 6
While the dough is resting, prepare your pizza sauce by combining the no-salt-added tomato sauce, dried oregano, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
Step 7
After the dough has rested, divide it into 12 equal portions and roll each into a ball.
Step 8
Sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal to prevent sticking.
Step 9
Roll each dough ball into a small circle, approximately 4 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 10
Spread a spoonful of the prepared sauce on each mini pizza base.
Step 11
Top each pizza with a few slices of low-sodium turkey pepperoni and a sprinkle of low-sodium mozzarella cheese.
Step 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Step 13
Remove from oven and garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
