Equipment

Pizza Pan

Ingredients

½ tablespoon crushed garlic
2 tablespoons thinly sliced basil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound pizza dough store-bought or homemade
Semolina flour optional, for the pizza peel
½ cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese or gruyere
1 cup freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
8 ounces mushrooms sliced

Instructions

Preheat oven to 500°F. If you have a pizza stone, let it heat up for around 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed garlic, sliced basil, and olive oil together. Set aside.
½ tablespoon crushed garlic, 2 tablespoons thinly sliced basil, 2 tablespoons olive oil
Roll or gently stretch your pizza dough into a big circle. If you don't have a pizza stone, put the stretched dough on a baking sheet with parchment paper. But if you're using a pizza stone, sprinkle a bit of semolina flour on a pizza peel and put the stretched-out dough there.
1 pound pizza dough, Semolina flour
Spread the pizza sauce all over the dough, leaving about an inch around the edges.
½ cup marinara sauce
Evenly sprinkle the parmesan or gruyere cheese on top.
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Sprinkle on the mozzarella cheese.
1 cup freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
Put the sliced mushrooms on, and then drizzle that olive oil mixture you made earlier.
8 ounces mushrooms
Bake in the preheated oven for 6-9 minutes, until the edges of the crust are golden brown and the cheese is all melted and gooey.
If you like, serve it with extra garlic oil. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Store mushroom pizza slices in an airtight container or Ziplock bag in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
