Making a Greek Pizza at home is easy and delicious! Here is a simple recipe for making your Greek pizza:
For the crust:
1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
1-2 tablespoons olive oil (for brushing the crust)
For the toppings:
1-2 cups fresh spinach (washed and roughly chopped)
1/2 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
1/4 cup kalamata olives (pitted and sliced)
1/2 small red onion (thinly sliced)
1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional if you want a little gooeyness in addition to the feta)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (or fresh if available)
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil (for drizzling over the pizza)
For the sauce (optional):
1/2 cup tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes
1-2 tablespoons olive oil (to brush over the sauce, if used)
2. Instructions:****
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Place inside your pizza stone - if you have one while heating.
Roll the pizza dough over a lightly floured surface or a greased baking sheet. If you're going to use a pizza stone, carefully transfer the dough onto a pizza peel or another floured surface to slide it onto the oven stone.
If you want to use tomato sauce, simply spread it all over the dough in a thin, even layer. However, when in doubt, you can simply brush the dough lightly with olive oil for a more authentic Greek-style pizza.
Sprinkle over your dough with shredded mozzarella cheese (if using).
Layer on the fresh spinach, crumbled feta cheese, sliced olives, and red onions.
For some added kick, sprinkle minced garlic all over your pizza.
Finish off with the oregano, salt, and pepper to add taste.
On top of all these toppings, drizzle a little bit of olive oil to enhance taste and crisp them up before baking.
Now place the pizza into the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden, and crispy and the toppings are hot and bubbly.
Once the pizza is finished, take it out of the oven, and allow it to cool a little before cutting it into pieces. Add fresh basil leaves if you like.
