Homemade Pizza Sauce Recipe
An easy Homemade Pizza Sauce recipe that doesn't require cooking. Just use a good food processor and have it ready in minutes. Store for 5 to 7 days in the refrigerator.
Servings: 2 cups
Cost: $5.00
Equipment
Ingredients
- 15 ounce can diced or whole tomatoes, drained of excess liquid (1 can)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ½ teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon honey
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon fennel seed
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
Instructions
- Pulse: Grind down the fennel with the other dried ingredients in a food processor. This breaks up the fennel so you don't get big chunks. Then add the remainder of the ingredients and pulse to combine.
- Season: Taste and adjust flavors as desired.
Notes
Troubleshooting: If the pizza sauce seems too thin, add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste until you like the thickness. If the pizza sauce is too thin it won't spread as well on the dough.
This recipe pairs well with our single pizza dough recipe.
