Start by bringing your pizza dough to room temperature, which usually takes about 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, gently stretch or roll the dough into a 12-inch circle.

Spread a thin layer of crushed San Marzano tomatoes over the surface of your dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges for the crust.

Scatter torn pieces of fresh mozzarella evenly over the tomato sauce.

Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 475°F to 500°F. Once the oven is ready, slide your prepared pizza onto the stone or place it on a baking sheet. Bake for about 10-12 minutes.

After baking, remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then scatter fresh basil leaves and drizzle with olive oil before serving.
