Step 1

Place a pizza stone in the oven**. Preheat the oven to 450º-500ºF for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2

Lightly flour a piece of parchment paper and flatten the pizza dough into a large circle, about 14” in diameter.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the garlic, rosemary and olive oil. Brush the olive oil mixture over the crust.

Step 4

Dollop the ricotta evenly over the crust and gently spread it out. Sprinkle on the mozzarella and the parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle crushed red pepper over the top – you only need a little bit – less than half a teaspoon, depending on how much heat you want.

Step 5

Bake the pizza in the preheated oven until the edges are browned and the cheese is melted, about 10-12 minutes.

Step 6

Cut into slices and serve.
