“Juicy and sweet tomatoes with a hint of garlic, salt and basil make this the ideal pizza sauce for enhancing the flavor of your Classic Pizza Dough base,” says Ooni CEO Kristian Tapaninaho. And we couldn't agree more!

Featured in our cookbook, “Ooni: Cooking with Fire,” and made on a stovetop in less than 30 minutes, this recipe is sure to become your go-to pizza sauce.

The secret to this classic pizza sauce recipe is choosing high-quality tomatoes that will make a noticeable difference to the flavor. We like canned San Marzano tomatoes, the traditional choice for Neapolitan pizzas. With their fleshy texture, low amount of seeds and slightly sweet flavor, this variety of plum tomato has been used in Italy and across the world for generations. 

Add fragrant garlic, fresh basil, olive oil, sugar and a dash of salt and pepper and you’ve got a sauce that would make any nonna proud.

With a super hot cast iron pan and a lick of olive oil, little more is needed to bring out the sweetness of oven-roasted peppers. We’ve used baby peppers for minimal prep – no need to remove seeds or get out the chopping board, just add them whole to Ooni’s cast iron Sizzler Pan and finish with a citrusy, simple salsa verde.

When the weather starts to cool, we warm up by spiking our pizzas with extra chilli! The rich pumpkin sauce used in this autumnal pizza is the perfect balance of spicy, sweet and savoury, and is ideal for that time of year when pumpkins are in abundance.
