Ingredients

• 1 ball (for a 12-inch crust) Pizza dough
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.3333 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Fontina cheese, shredded
• 0.3333 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
• 0.5 cup Pizza sauce
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
• 4 leaves Fresh basil leaves (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.

Step 2

Lightly flour a clean surface and stretch or roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet.

Step 3

Brush the olive oil over the surface of the dough to create a nice base layer for the toppings.

Step 4

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges for the crust.

Step 5

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the Parmesan, Fontina, and crumbled Gorgonzola cheeses.

Step 6

If desired, sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top for extra flavor.

Step 7

Slide the pizza (with parchment paper, if using) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Step 8

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crisp and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired, before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your delicious Four Cheese Pizza!
