Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Pizza Dough

  1. In a small bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

  2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil, then mix until a dough forms.

  3. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Step 2: Make the White Pizza Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

  2. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly add milk, whisking continuously.

  3. Stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Simmer until thickened, then remove from heat.

Step 3: Assemble the White Pizza

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle on a floured surface.

  2. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Spread a generous layer of white sauce over the dough.

  3. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, dollop ricotta cheese, and add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a kick.

  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!

Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil and oregano. Slice and enjoy your homemade white pizza!

Notes

✔ Use Fresh Dough – Let the dough rest at room temperature before rolling.
✔ Preheat Your Oven Well – A hot oven ensures a crispy crust.
✔ Don’t Overload with Toppings – Keeps the crust crispy and prevents sogginess.
