Notes
Ingredient Substitution Notes
- French bread. Obviously french bread is what's recommended for this recipe. But a hearty loaf of sourdough, Italian bread, or even ciabatta all work well too.
- Olive oil. avocado oil works in place of olive oil.
- Pizza Sauce. this is the best homemade pizza sauce! You can use store-bought, if desired.
- Mozzarella cheese. I suggest a shredded, organic mozzarella for best results. Or, you can use a "pizza blend" which you can find at most grocery stores.
- Toppings. choose your favorite. We usually make one half cheese, one half pepperoni.
