Homemade Fresh Tomato Pizza

Recipe Description

I adore this Homemade Fresh Tomato Pizza. It is really easy to prepare once you have your pizza dough. I usually have a dough ball in the freezer, either ready-made or homemade.

To make this pizza, start by placing cherry tomatoes, oil, oregano, salt, and chopped fresh basil in a bowl and mixing together. Place the tomato mixture onto pizza dough and add any extras toppings you wish (except olives). Bake the pizza in the oven until the dough is cooked. Remove from the oven and scatter shredded mozzarella on top. Return to the oven and continue to bake until the cheese has melted. Remove, slice, serve and enjoy!

To make these Homemade Fresh Tomato Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:

I recently made this Homemade Fresh Tomato Pizza for my family's movie night, and it was a huge hit. The kids loved helping me mix the tomatoes and herbs. With a ready-made dough from the freezer, it was super easy. The fresh basil made all the difference for flavor. We will definitely make this again.

Made this pizza last weekend and it was superb. I had some mates over, and we gobbled it down. I always keep dough in the freezer, so it was a breeze to whip up. The fresh basil really hit the spot.
