Method
- Pull the pizza dough out of the refrigerator at least two hours to come up to room temperature before you are ready to bake.
- Place pizza stone on the center oven rack of a cold oven. Preheat oven to 500°F for one hour.
- Separate the fresh mozzarella slices, and use a heart-shaped cutter to create individual hearts. Cover and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Cut each pepperoni slice into heart shapes using a heart-shaped cutter. Set aside.
- Sprinkle flour on a sheet of parchment paper to prevent the dough from sticking.
- Place the dough in the center and spread out into a heart shape with your hands. Pinch the bottom to form a point and gradually spread the dough upward and outward.
- Once shaped, spread the pizza sauce over the crust, leaving a clean edge around the sides.
- Sprinkle the grated mozzarella over the sauce, then sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese.
- Spread the pepperoni hearts over the cheese, then add the mozzarella hearts.
- Sprinkle the sliced sweet peppers and red onions over the top, and add Italian seasoning.
- Slide the pizza onto a pizza peel and carefully transfer to the hot baking stone. Bake for 10 minutes until the crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
