1: Prepare your pizza dough ahead of time.

Our guide to making the perfect Classic Pizza Dough covers everything you need to know.

2: For the sauce for this pizza, we recommend preparing our easy Classic Pizza Sauce.

With a hint of garlic, salt and basil, it's the ideal pizza sauce that will help to bring out the flavours in the other ingredients used here.

3: Fire up your Ooni pizza oven.

Aim for 500˚C (932˚F) on the stone baking board inside. You can check the temperature inside your Ooni quickly and easily using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer.

4: Using a small amount of flour, dust your Ooni pizza peel.

Stretch the pizza dough ball out to 12"/16" and lay it out on your pizza peel. Using a large spoon or ladle, spread the sauce evenly across the pizza base. Top with the pepperoni, then the mozzarella.

5: Slide the pizza off the peel and into your Ooni pizza oven, making sure to rotate the pizza regularly.

6: Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven.

Sprinkle the pizza with some torn basil leaves and add the pepper. Serve straight away!
