I recently discovered that eating fresh mozzarella on pizza in a whole ’nother level of awesomeness! The flavor of the melted mozzarella is so much better than that of regular shredded cheese. It’s a real treat!   Yield: 2 large or 5 mini pies

Ingredients

Dough

  • 1 tablespoon oil

Pesto

  • salt

  • pepper

Topping

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

Directions

Prepare the Dough

1.

In a bowl, combine water and yeast. Mix and add flour and oil. Knead until a nice dough forms. Allow to rise for 20–30 minutes.

Tips:

You can always use one frozen pizza dough instead.

In the meantime, place pesto ingredients in a food processor and blend until creamy.
