Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place your 10-inch Dutch oven on the bottom rack for about 2-3 minutes to heat it up.
  2. Roll out the frozen pizza dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
  3. Create a foil sling by folding a piece of aluminum foil wide enough to support your pizza.
  4. Brush olive oil over the surface of the dough. Spread marinara sauce evenly across the dough. Layer on toppings and cheese.
  5. Gently slide the assembled pizza into the preheated Dutch oven using the foil sling. Bake for approximately 20 minutes.
  6. Carefully remove the Dutch oven and let the pizza cool for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  7. Garnish with fresh basil and red pepper flakes if desired.
