A homemade cheesy garlic pizza with a garlic butter base and mozzarella

Ingredients

Home-kitchen amounts for 2–3 — standard home-cooking quantities for this dish, not the chain’s recipe (chains do not publish theirs). Difficulty: Medium.

  • 300 g pizza dough (store-bought, or homemade)
  • 60 g butter, melted
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed to a paste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 200 g mozzarella, grated
  • 1 tbsp finely grated parmesan
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Semolina or flour, for stretching the base

Method

  1. Take the dough out of the fridge 30 minutes ahead. Heat the oven as hot as it goes (250°C+) with a tray or stone inside.
  2. Stir the crushed garlic and garlic powder through the melted butter and let it sit 5 minutes.
  3. Stretch the dough to a 30 cm round on semolina. Brush the garlic butter edge to edge.
  4. Scatter the mozzarella evenly, then the parmesan and oregano.
  5. Bake 7–10 minutes until the cheese is blistered and the base is crisp underneath. Slice and serve immediately.
