Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 250°C (480°F) or as high as it can go. If you have a pizza stone, heat it along with the oven for a crispier crust.
Prepare the Base: Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce evenly over the Pinsa crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Add Toppings: Distribute the slices of fresh mozzarella and halved cherry tomatoes over the sauce.
Bake: Place the Pinsa in the oven on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the mozzarella is melted and bubbling and the crust is golden and crispy.
Finish with Fresh Ingredients: Remove from the oven and add fresh basil leaves. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Serve: Slice and serve immediately for a deliciously light and classic Italian experience.
