Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza

1Preparing the Ingredients Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a pizza stone in the oven to heat up.

2Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then crumble it into pieces. Thinly slice the red onion, (½) halve the cherry tomatoes, and chop the fresh basil leaves.

3Browning the Ground Beef (½ lb) In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef (½ lb) until browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4Assembling the Pizza Roll out the pizza dough (1) on a floured surface to desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal.

6Layer the cooked bacon, sliced red onions, cherry tomatoes, and chopped basil over the cheese.

7Cooking the Pizza Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
