Fresh Tomato and Garlic Pizza

unnamed (91)

There is a bakery that makes this pizza and I had to copy it.

One pound of pizza dough

Crisco to grease the pan

Four thin sliced tomatoes

2 teaspoons crushed garlic

1/3 cup olive oil

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon oregano

1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

2 big handfuls of grated cheese

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees

Grease the pan with Crisco

Press the dough into the pan

Toss the tomatoes, garlic, oil, salt, pepper, garlic salt and oregano together.

Layer the tomatoes neatly on the dough.

Add all the remaining oil

Cover with the grated cheese

Bake on the bottom rack of the oven for 15 to 20 minutes.

Check the bottom of the crust because it has to be brown to be crispy.

Every oven is different so cooking times really vary but always start checking early.
