Margherita Pizza

Pizza Dough - Makes 2-12 inch pizzas

1 cup warm water

1 small packet instant dry yeast

1 Tbsp. honey (or sugar if you prefer)

2 tsp. salt

2 Tbsp. olive oil

3 cups flour

Toppings (split toppings between the two pizzas)

Cornmeal for dusting pizza stone

1 Tbsp. olive oil

14 oz. jar pizza sauce

16 oz. ball fresh mozzarella ( sliced 1/8 of an inch thick)

3 fresh basil leaves chopped

oregano

Directions: First off if you don't have a pizza stone get one! Pizzas turn out SO much better with them. I bought mine at Ross for only $8.99! Dust pizza stone with cornmeal. Place stone in oven and heat stone at 500 degrees for about 15 to 20 minutes. While pizza stone is heating up roll out dough. Lightly brush pizza with olive oil. Top with pizza sauce, mozzarella slices, and chopped basil. Sprinkle with oregano. Transfer pizza to pizza stone. Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes or until crust is golden brown and top is bubbling.
