    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash the cherry tomatoes, then halve or quarter them depending on their size.

    In a small bowl, combine the lukewarm water, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

    3

    In another bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil.

    Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.

    5

    Preheat the oven to 482°F (250°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    6

    Roll out the risen dough thinly and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

    7

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with finely chopped garlic and oregano.

    8

    Distribute the mozzarella evenly over the pizza, then arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top.

    9

    Bake the pizza for 10-12 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    Remove from the oven, let it rest for a minute, then garnish with fresh basil leaves.
