Pesto Pizza Recipe

my easy homemade pesto (store bought works too)

mozzarella

tomato,

oregano

Kosher salt

Gently press dough into a circle and slap it back and forth between your hands to create a 12-14 inch crust. Transfer to a pizza pan. Poke crust all over with a fork. 

Remove from oven and spread pesto across crust, leaving about an inch around the perimeter.

Sprinkle oregano across the pizza as well as a large pinch of Kosher salt.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the crust is dark golden brown.

I made this recipe tonight!  Amazing!
I had made your full pizza dough recipe for your cinnamon rolls recipe, which was also awesome. I froze the other half of the dough and used it tonight to make this pizza. I also used your pesto recipe  that I had made this fall and froze. I will definitely be making this pizza again! There is just something about a simple, fresh pizza that is so satisfying. The sweetness from the warm tomatoes and the freshness from the pesto tie everything together.  The only issue I had was my pan. I used a pizza stone, but I think the results would be better on the pan you suggest, which I do have. The crust just stuck and didn't get as crispy as I would like. Next time I'm going to try the other pan.  Thank you for all of the great recipes!!!

Hey Kylie!  I just wanted to tell you that I made this crust again. I made it Sunday and we had it tonight. We made early Valentine's heart shaped pizza's!  They were perfect.  The crust was amazing and didn't stick this time!  Thanks for the advice!  Let me know if you want a photo.
