Ingredients
Makes 1x 12”/16” pizza

8.8/11.6oz (250/330g) classic pizza dough 
4-5 tbsp classic pizza sauce
6-8 mini pigs in blankets, cooked
3-4 tsp cranberry sauce
2.8oz (80g) fresh mozzarella, torn into chunks
Half red onion, finely sliced
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method
Prepare your pizza dough ahead of time. Our guide to making the perfect Classic Pizza Dough covers everything you need to know.

For the sauce for this pizza, we recommend preparing our easy Classic Pizza Sauce. With a hint of garlic, salt and basil, it's the ideal pizza sauce that will help to bring out the flavors in the other ingredients used here.

Fire up your pizza oven. Aim for 952˚F (500˚C) on the stone baking board inside. You can check the temperature inside your Ooni quickly and easily using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer.

Using a small amount of flour, dust your Ooni pizza peel. Stretch the pizza dough ball out and lay it out on your pizza peel. With a large spoon or ladle, spread an even layer of your sauce across the base. Top with your cheese, sausages, and onions. Finish with a few dollops of cranberry sauce.

Slide the pizza off the peel and into your Ooni pizza oven. Cook for 1-2 minutes, making sure to turn the pizza regularly for an even cook. 

Serve the cooked pizza with a sprinkling of crushed black pepper, and an extra portion of cranberry sauce for dipping if you like.
