Easy Homemade Pizza Sauce

A Homemade Pizza Sauce recipe you can make in the comfort of your kitchen. Super easy to make with simple ingredients. Ready in 5 minutes!

I would say on average we eat pizza twice a month. Sometimes takeout and sometimes homemade. When I do make pizza at home for us, I like to use this Pizza Sauce recipe. Super easy to make.

We all love our pizza but there is something just so satisfying when you make it yourself. Whether you are making the dough from scratch, making the sauce or just assembling it and baking it in your oven, it's pretty difficult to fail when making pizza.

Since I always have some Italian Seasoning on-hand, that's what I used for this sauce recipe. If you don't have any and don't feel like buying some, you can substitute for a combination of dried oregano, dried basil and some dried thyme. A teaspoon to a teaspoon and half total should be good for this sauce. But feel free to tweak the quantities for your taste buds.

The average pizza uses about ¾ cup of pizza sauce so this pizza sauce recipe should be good for about 5 pizzas. Obviously, this depends on the size of the pizza and how much sauce you like on your pizza.

🥣 How to make Homemade Pizza Sauce

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Let the sauce sit for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. This will allow all the flavors to meld. You can use it immediately, but the longer you let it sit in the refrigerator, the more flavorful it will be.
Top each pizza dough with approximately ¾ cup of sauce. Adjust for different sizes of dough accordingly.
