burrata pepperoni pizza

A delicious burrata pepperoni pizza with fresh basil and a crispy crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup marinara or pizza sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2030 slices pepperoni
  • 8 oz burrata (torn or spooned into dollops)
  • Fresh basil leaves (to finish)
  • 12 tbsp grated Parmesan (optional)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for finishing)
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F (or as hot as your oven goes). If using a pizza stone/steel, preheat it for 30 minutes.
  2. Stretch dough into a 12–14 inch round on a floured surface. Transfer to parchment paper or a lightly oiled pizza pan.
  3. Spread marinara evenly over the dough, leaving a border for the crust.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella over the sauce, then layer pepperoni across the top.
  5. Bake 10–14 minutes until the crust is deeply golden and the cheese is bubbling.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately add large dollops of burrata across the pizza. Let it soften for 1–2 minutes from the heat.
  7. Top with fresh basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and Parmesan (optional). Slice and serve.

Notes

  • For a crispier crust, preheat a pizza stone or steel.
  • Adjust pepperoni quantity to your preference.
  • Burrata adds creaminess but can be substituted with fresh mozzarella if needed.
