Ingredients
- Olive oil for brushing
- Cornmeal (optional)
- 1 pound fresh pizza dough, store-bought or homemade
- ½ cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
- 1 cup 4 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¾ cup thinly sliced zucchini (⅛-inch thick, about 22 slices)
- ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- kosher salt as needed for seasoning
- black pepper as needed for seasoning
- Red pepper flakes for garnish, optional
- Shaved parmesan cheese for garnish
Directions
Allow pizza dough to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
Set the oven rack to the lower position. Preheat to 500ºF (260ºC).
Lightly bruzh a large baking sheet with olive oil.
Evenly sprinkle cornmeal on the pan if desired.
On a lightly floured surface, stretch and shape the dough into a 10-inch circle.
Transfer dough to the baking sheet.
Use fingers to press into a 12-inch circle. Leave the edges slightly thicker, about ½-inch tall and wide.
Brush some olive oil on the edges of the dough to make the crust crispier when baked.
Spread the pizza sauce on top, followed by the cheese, and zucchini.
Sprinkle the Italian seasonings on top, and some salt and pepper.
Bake the pizza on the lowest oven rack until the crust is golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Sprinkle some red pepper flakes (if using) and parmesan cheese on top.
Slice and serve pizza immediately when still hot.
