This was the worst pizza I have ever made!! We used a whole wheat pizza dough ball from the grocery deli and put it on our pizza stone. The 500 degree oven was WAY too hot-the pizza burned within 7 minutes. The cheese was really thick at the end. I used fresh basil from my garden but it didn't help. The Prosciutto was chewy. Everyone ate less than 1/2 of a piece and we threw it out.

Ingredients
- 1 pound refrigerated fresh pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon cornmeal
- 2/3 cup lower-sodium marinara sauce (such as McCutcheon's)
- 6 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, torn into 1/2-inch-wide strips
- 1/4 cup small fresh oregano leaves
Preparation
- 1. Let the dough stand at room temperature, covered, for 30 minutes.
- 2. Place a pizza stone or heavy baking sheet in oven. Preheat oven to 500° (keep pizza stone or baking sheet in oven as it preheats).
- 3. Roll the dough into a 14-inch circle on a lightly floured surface, and pierce entire surface liberally with a fork. Carefully remove pizza stone from oven. Sprinkle cornmeal over pizza stone; place dough on pizza stone. Spread sauce over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border; top with cheese. Bake at 500° for 14 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese is lightly browned. Remove from oven; brush outer crust with olive oil. Arrange prosciutto over pizza; top with oregano. Cut into 6 large slices.
