  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For the Pizza Toppings:

Instructions

2️⃣ Shape the Heart

  1. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. Roll out the dough into a large circle (~12 inches).
  3. Use a knife or scissors to cut a small notch at the top, then pull and shape the bottom into a point to create a heart shape.

3️⃣ Add Toppings

  1. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
  2. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
  3. Add pepperoni (or other toppings) in a decorative pattern.
  4. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese.

  2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
  3. Garnish with fresh basil, slice, and enjoy!
