Ingredients
Homemade Pizza Dough
- 1 packet active dry yeast (2 ¼ teaspoons)
- 1 cup warm water 105-110°F
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Toppings
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/3 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese cubed or shredded
- 6-8 canned sardines (It’s best to use olive-oil packed sardines)
- 1/4 medium-sized red onion thinly sliced
- Optional chopped parsley for garnish.
Instructions
Make Pizza Dough (skip this step if you use store-bought dough)
- In a small bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let it sit for 10 minutes, and you should see the yeast foaming up.
- Mix together flour, salt, olive oil and yeast mixture with a wooden spoon until the dough just begins to come together.
- Transfer the dough to a well-floured cutting board. Knead the dough by hand for about 5-8 minutes until it’s soft and elastic.
- Then place the dough in a greased mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm and dry area for 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
Make Sardine Pizza
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Stretch the dough by gently flattening the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a non-stick pizza pan or pizza stone. Use a fork to poke holes across the surface of the dough.
- Brush the dough lightly with olive oil. Add the tomato sauce and spread it evenly, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides. Add mozzarella, distributing it evenly over the surface.
- Add sliced red onions, and sardines on top of the cheese.
- Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes until the cheese is melted, and the crust is golden brown.
- Remove the pizza from the oven, and transfer to a cutting board. Garnish with chopped parsley or basil. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes
- The homemade pizza dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours or frozen for 3 months.
- As each oven works differently, I recommend checking the doneness after 10 to 12 minutes.
- To reheat leftover pizza, bake it in the oven for about 5 minutes or until the crust is crispy.
