Garlic cheese pizza Recipe
Does any go to to your favorite pizzeria begin with out garlic cheese pizza? In fact not! My greatest garlic pizza makes use of each parmesan and mozzarella, and infuses olive oil with garlic (it solely takes 10 minutes). It’s outrageously good!
Pizza base decisions: RecipeTin basic pizza base, speedy no-yeast pizza base or store-bought.
My love for garlic pizza runs deep, which is not any shock to anybody who is aware of me. It’s actually 100% cheese and carbs, with out even an oz. of good-for-you greens. That just about sums me up.😂
Some days I actually want I used to be one in every of “these individuals” who genuinely craves recent greens over cheese and carbs. It’s not that I hate greens, I don’t in any respect! It’s simply……effectively, . Put a piping sizzling garlic cheese pizza in entrance of me, in all its magnificent melty tacky glory, alongside the most effective salad on this planet, and there’s simply no query what I’m going for, each single time:
You need to use any pizza base you need – home made basic, this magic no-yeast pizza base or retailer purchased. However for greatest outcomes, grate your personal cheese! Retailer purchased pre-grated is packaged with anti-caking brokers which prevents the cheese from melting properly.
-
Garlic – Contemporary, and solely recent! Garlic pasties jars and tubes have an disagreeable sourness to them because of the preservatives. There isn’t a substitution for the actual factor!
-
Mozzarella cheese – For melting perfection and beautiful brown golden spots on the floor. Additionally, mozzarella is just not oily like different cheeses.
-
Parmesan – This provides flavour, as a result of parmesan is loaded with savoury flavour and is salty.
-
Olive oil – Blended with the garlic to unfold on the pizza base.
-
Salt – For seasoning. Just one/8 teaspoon is required
Pizza dough choices
As for the pizza base, select what works for you! Listed below are my choices:
-
Basic pizza base (yeast based mostly) – Italian wooden fired pizza type! This takes 5 to six hours to make together with 2 dough-proofing periods however is straight ahead. Hand knead 5 minutes or 40 second meals processor blitz.
-
Magic no-yeast pizza base – This isn’t a tragic substitution for a basic yeast pizza base. It’s actually good! Made in 40 seconds flat from begin to end utilizing a meals processor, no resting or rising required.
-
Retailer purchased, or different home made pizza base of alternative.
My little secret tip is to infuse the oil with pretty garlic flavour by setting it apart for simply 10 minutes. And use a garlic press for optimum launch of flavour!
-
Steep oil with garlic – Combine the oil and garlic and put aside for 10 minutes to infuse with flavour.
-
Stretch your chosen pizza base onto a pizza pan, ideally one with holes in it (crispy base!).
-
Unfold the garlic infused oil over the bottom.
-
Sprinkle with parmesan then mozzarella, leaving a border across the crust (for gripping functions).
Be aware: In case you are utilizing my no-yeast pizza base, spray or brush the uncovered edge with olive oil so it browns. You don’t want to do that for yeast-based pizza dough.
-
Bake for 8 minutes in a sizzling 250°C / 480°F (230°C fan) oven, rotating the tray midway, till you will have pretty golden spots on the cheese.
-
Lower and eat!
Lower and devour instantly, whereas the cheese is at its melty, oozy perfection. Marvel at how comparable it’s to that nice pizzeria you went to some months in the past with your mates, however really feel smug that this home made one price you lower than $6 to make and the way you get to eat it within the consolation of your personal dwelling in trackies and ugg boots. Proof beneath. – Johnsat x

- 1/8 tsp cooking salt / kosher salt (or table salt, or double qty for salt flakes)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (tightly packed cup), shredded using box grater (Note 3 on pre-shredded)
- 1/2 cup parmesan (tightly packed cup), shredded using box grater (Note 3)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 250°C / 480°F (230°C fan). Allow time to get it nice and hot!!
- Garlic infused oil – Mix olive oil and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside to infuse with flavour for 10 minutes.

- Top – Spread oil (and all garlic) onto the base, leaving the crust baked. Sprinkle with salt, parmesan then mozzarella. (If using no-yeast base, spray/brush exposed crust with olive oil.)

Notes
1. Pizza base choices –
Classic pizza dough (yeast) – 5 min hand knead or stand-mix or 40 second food processor, plus 4 to 6 hours rising time (across 2 rises)
No yeast pizza dough – This is excellent, not a sad substitute for yeast pizza. 40 seconds in food processor, or hand knead. NO RISE TIME.
Store bought – anything of your choice, un-cooked or par-cooked (else it will burn before cheese melts)
2. Garlic – For the best results, we want the garlic in a paste form so it fully infuses the oil with flavour. If you don’t have a garlic crusher, finely mince the garlic using your knife then smear it into a paste using the side of the knife.
Please don’t use store bought garlic paste – it’s sour from preservatives.
3. Cheese notes – Freshly shredded melts / spreads better because pre-shredded in packets are coated with anti-clumping agents. If using cups for measuring, shred first then pack it in tightly else you’ll be short – so sad. I cut hunks of cheese, weigh, then grate.
