Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. On a floured surface, divide the 1 lb pizza dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each into a 6 inch circle.
Step 2
Spread 2 tbsp of the 0.5 cup tomato sauce on one half of each circle, leaving a 0.5 inch border. Top with 1 oz of the 4 oz mozzarella, torn into small pieces.
Step 3
Fold the other half of the dough over the filling and press the edges to seal. Crimp the edges with a fork to create the classic pattern and ensure they stay closed.
Step 4
Brush the tops with the 2 tbsp olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and puffed, about 15 minutes, until the crust is crisp and the cheese is melted.
Step 5
Let cool for 2 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm.
