Pizza Margherita
If you are a connoisseur of pizza and especially thin crusted ones, investing in an inexpensive pizza-baking stone will greatly improve the texture and flavor of your crust. Always preheat your oven to 500°F for 30 minutes before putting the pie in the oven. A pizza usually takes around 6 to 8 minutes of baking time if the oven is completely preheated. The stone slightly speeds up the cooking process. Makes One 8-Inch Pizza.


Ingredients:

3 to 4 tablespoons Quick Pizza Sauce
1 tablespoon soy Parmesan
6 basil leaves, julienned
1 recipe Spelt-Oat Pizza Dough
2 ounces soy mozzarella cheese, grated (approximately 1/2 cup)


Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 500°F. Spread the pizza sauce over the rolled out dough. Sprinkle the Parmesan then the basil over the sauce. Spread the mozzarella over the dough.

2. Bake the pizza on a pizza stone or on a nonstick baking tray or cookie sheet for 6 to 7 minutes.

Note:
For all pizzas, when using a stone, sprinkle a little bit of coarse cornmeal on the hot stone before putting the pizza dough on it to prevent sticking.
