Prepare the Ingredients
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). Slice the fresh mozzarella and bocconcini into small pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Assemble the Pizza
On a pizza stone or baking tray, spread the pomodoro sauce evenly over the base. Distribute the sliced mozzarella and bocconcini evenly on top of the sauce. Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes over the cheese.
Season and Bake
Drizzle olive oil over the top, and season with salt and black pepper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Garnish and Serve
Once out of the oven, scatter fresh basil leaves over the pizza. Let it cool for a couple of minutes, slice, and serve hot.
