Cheese Pepperoni Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:

• Pizza dough: 1 ball (store-bought or homemade, about 12-inch size)

• Pizza sauce: 1/2 cup (tomato-based)

• Mozzarella cheese: 1 ½ cups shredded

• Pepperoni slices: 20-30 slices

• Olive oil: 1 tablespoon

• Dried oregano or Italian seasoning: 1 teaspoon (optional)

• Flour or cornmeal: for dusting

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven:
   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

2. Prepare the dough:
   On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle.

3. Add sauce:
   Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border (about 1/2 inch) around the edges.

4. Add cheese:
   Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.

5. Add pepperoni:
   Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly on top of the cheese.

6. Season:
   Drizzle a little olive oil around the crust edges and sprinkle dried oregano or Italian seasoning over the pizza if desired.

7. Bake:
   Transfer the pizza to the oven (onto a pizza stone or baking sheet) and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

8. Cool and serve:
   Remove from oven, let cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and enjoy!
