Ingredients
  

For the Dough:
  • 1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning optional
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 cup water at room temperature
  • cornmeal optional, for dusting
For Topping:
  • 1/3 cup pizza sauce your favorite sauce for topping
  • 4-1/2 ounces whole-milk mozzarella cheese very thinly sliced
  • 1 small Roma tomato thinly sliced
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish
  • Sprinkle of Parmesan adds a savory finish

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Rolling Pin
  • Baking Sheet or Pizza Stone
  • Knife or pizza cutter

Method
 

Directions:
  1. Step 1: Preheat the Oven - Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C). This high temperature will help create a crispy crust.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the Baking Surface - Spray your baking sheet or pizza stone with cooking spray. If you’re using cornmeal, sprinkle a thin layer over the surface to prevent sticking and add texture.
  3. Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients - In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning (if using).
  4. Step 4: Mix Wet Ingredients - In a separate bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, and room temperature water. Stir until well mixed.
  5. Step 5: Make the Dough - Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
  6. Step 6: Knead the Dough - Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  7. Step 7: Roll Out the Dough - Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to your desired thickness. Aim for about 1/4 inch thick for a nice crispy crust.
  8. Step 8: Add Toppings - Transfer the rolled-out dough to the prepared baking surface. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the top, leaving a small border around the edges. Layer the thinly sliced mozzarella cheese and Roma tomatoes over the sauce.
  9. Step 9: Bake the Pizza - Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  10. Step 10: Garnish and Serve - Once out of the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Slice and serve hot!

Notes

  • For a healthier option, use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour.
  • Experiment with different toppings to suit your taste!
  • Store leftover dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
