Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh tomatoes (3-4 medium, quartered)
1 6-ounce can tomato paste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon clover honey or granulated sugar
2 medium cloves garlic*
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to taste)
Few turns fresh ground pepper
2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil (optional)
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

Add all ingredients to the pitcher of a blender. Blend until completely pureed. Add additional salt and pepper to taste (I usually go with a full teaspoon salt). Spread on pizza crust; add toppings and bake as desired.
If you don't have a blender, chop the fresh tomatoes and finely mince the garlic, then add them along with the other ingredients to a bowl. Stir until combined, taste, and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
