Method

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to preheat.

    Divide the pizza dough into 2 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll each portion into a thin, 10-inch round crust.

    For a crispier crust, pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.

  2. 2

    Add the Sauce

    Spread the tomato sauce (200 ml tomato sauce) evenly over each pizza crust, leaving a small border for the crust.

    Don't overload the crust with sauce, as it can make the pizza soggy.

    Timer: 5 minspoon
  3. 3

    Add Toppings

    Distribute the sliced mushrooms (250 g mushrooms) evenly over the tomato sauce. Then, arrange the mozzarella (200 g mozzarella) slices on top.

    Feel free to add other toppings like olives, onions, or herbs to customize your pizza.

    Timer: 5 min
  4. 4

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully transfer the pizzas to the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the mozzarella is melted and bubbly.

    Keep an eye on the pizza while it's baking to prevent burning. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the pizzas from the oven and let them cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your homemade Pizza Ai Funghi!

    Garnish with fresh basil leaves for added flavor and presentation.
