Brush with Herbed Garlic Oil over entire crust.
Arrange a scant amount of thinly sliced tomatoes and mozzarella.
Bake until cheese is bubbling and crust is starting to turn golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Remove from oven and place fresh basil leaves on top of pizza, one leaf per slice if whole, otherwise scattered over entire pizza.
Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of Herbed Garlic Oil. Slice and serve immediately. Mangia!
