Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it heats; otherwise, use a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll the 1 lb pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza peel.

  3. 3

    Brush the dough with 1 tbsp olive oil, then spread 0.5 cup tomato sauce evenly over the surface, leaving a 1-inch border for the crust.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then scatter 1 cup corn kernels on top. Finish with 1 tsp dried oregano.

  5. 5

    Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned in spots. Let cool for 2 minutes before slicing.

  6. 6

    Slice and serve hot. Add red pepper flakes or fresh basil if you like.
