  • Total Time: 17-20 minutes
  • Yield: 8 slices 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  1. Pizza dough, enough for one 16-inch pizza
  2. 1 cup pizza sauce
  3. 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  4. 1/2 cup pepperoni slices
  5. Optional: Dried oregano, red pepper flakes, and freshly grated Parmesan for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your Ooni Karu pizza oven to 950°F (500°C).
  2. Roll out your dough to a 16-inch diameter, making sure to leave a crust around the edges.
  3. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce onto the dough, leaving a crust border.
  4. Sprinkle a generous layer of mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  5. Evenly distribute the pepperoni slices across the pizza.
  6. Add any additional toppings, such as oregano, red pepper flakes, or Parmesan.
  7. Carefully transfer the pizza to your preheated Ooni Karu oven using a pizza peel.
  8. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, making sure to rotate every 30 seconds for an even cook.
  9. Once the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling, remove the pizza from the oven. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Ensure your pizza peel is well-floured to prevent the pizza from sticking when transferring it to the oven.
