Instructions
- Hand crush the plum tomatoes and drain the excess juice. Save the juice for another use. Add the salt and oregano to the tomatoes and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 450f and set the rack to the middle level. Mix the garlic and olive oil together.
- Slice the loaf in half and if each side is thicker than 1", press down to flatten. Using a pastry brush, coat the inside of both pieces of bread with garlic oil and place onto a baking sheet. Bake for 3-5 minutes or until golden.
- Spread the sauce onto the bread then cover with cheese. Bake for 8 more minutes. Remove the pizza and distribute the grated Pecorino Romano on both sides. Bake until bubbly and golden (about 2-3 more minutes). Remove fromthe oven and let cool for a few minutes. Slice into 4 pieces per side. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use any toppings you like. Sausage, meatballs, cupping pepperoni, and mushrooms all work well.
- There might be some extra sauce leftover.
- Leftovers can be saved for up to 3 days and the pizza can be reheated at 350f on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet until hot.
