This easy Caprese Pizza with fresh tomatoes, basil, and sliced creamy mozzarella cheese is a delicious homemade treat that doesn’t require you to leave your kitchen or call for takeout!
Step 1
Position the oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 500°F.
Step 2
Place tomatoes and mozzarella onto a paper towel-lined baking sheet, cover with paper towels, and gently press down to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
Roll pizza dough with a rolling pin and with lightly floured hands, into a 12-inch circle. Brush the top with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Step 4
Bake the dough in preheated oven, until slightly set, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Remove from the oven. Brush with remaining olive oil and sprinkle garlic and Italian seasoning. Shingle the tomatoes and mozzarella by alternating around the top of the pizza.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven by placing the parchment paper directly onto the rack, until the edges of the pizza are golden and the cheese is melted, 10-12 minutes.
