Slide onto pizza stone and cook for 3-4 minutes. Remove from oven and spread with a thin layer of sauce, then parmesan cheese and tomato slices. Cook for 5 more minutes, or until crust is crisp and cooked through.1 lb pizza dough*
- Pizza Oven Method: Roll out pizza dough. Sprinkle a pizza peel with cornmeal and flour and place the pizza dough on top. Spread with a thin layer of sauce. Top with parmesan cheese and a few slices of tomato. Use pizza peel to slide the pizza into hot, preheated pizza oven. Rotate gradually, until cooked and crisp on all sides—usually takes about 3 minutes.
- Add Burrata: Remove pizza from oven. Tear burrata ball into pieces and scatter around the pizza (or serve it whole, in the center of the pizza). Top with fresh basil.

Notes
Yield: One 12-14 inch pizza. Serving Size: 1/3 pizza.
Variations: Add fresh sliced peaches, prosciutto, or pepperoni.
Baking Tray: No pizza stone or pizza oven? Use a large baking tray, placed upside down, as a makeshift” pizza stone”. Allow it to preheat and warm up in the oven. Once hot, slide pizza on top to bake.
Pizza Dough: My homemade pizza dough recipe will make two large pizzas. Or, use quality store-bought dough from Trader Joes, Winco, or Whole Foods, which will also be enough for 2 pizzas.
