Tomato pizza is a vibrant and delicious dish that combines colorful cherry tomatoes with a perfectly baked crust and gooey cheese. This recipe is easy to follow and results in a visually stunning, mouth-watering pizza that is sure to impress your family and friends.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- Stir in the honey and olive oil.
- Gradually add in the flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you're using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a 12-inch circle (or desired thickness).
- Place the rolled-out dough on a piece of parchment paper or a floured pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
- Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border for the crust.
- Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the cheese.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the pizza onto the hot stone. If using a baking sheet, simply place the pizza in the oven.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
- Enjoy your fresh, homemade Tomato Pizza!
Tips:
- Use warm water (not hot) to help activate the yeast more effectively.
- Allow the dough to rest and rise in a warm, draft-free area to ensure a fluffy and light crust.
- For a more flavorful dough, consider letting it rise in the refrigerator overnight.
- Use a pizza stone or a preheated baking sheet to achieve a perfectly crisp crust.
- Sprinkle fresh basil leaves over the pizza once it's out of the oven for an extra burst of flavor.
