Steps:

• Make the pesto: Heat the oven to 450 degrees with a rack in the middle position. Combine basil, 1 garlic clove and pine nuts in a food processor, and pulse until finely chopped. With the machine running, stream in the olive oil. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add Parmesan and salt, and pulse to combine.
• Prepare the pizza: Combine the 1/4 cup olive oil and grated garlic in a small pot over medium. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the garlic starts to sizzle (but doesn't begin to brown), 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.

• Spread the pesto over the two halves all the way to the edges and top with the cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is evenly melted, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to broil and broil (watch carefully!) until the cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes more. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Top with red-pepper flakes, oregano and more Parmesan, if you like.

FRENCH BREAD PIZZA RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place one oven rack in the top third of the oven (this helps to prevent the bottom from burning)
• Slice French bread in half lengthwise and flatten slightly (this helps to prevent curling edges) and spread the cut side with garlic butter.
• Toast bread for 4-5 minutes (or broil 2-3 minutes) or until just slightly dried and crusty on top -- it doesn't have to be browned. Remove from the oven and reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Spread each half with an equal amount of sauce (use a little more or less depending on how big your loaf is). You just want a thin layer so it does not become soggy.
• Top with mozzarella cheese, sprinkle with Italian seasoning, and add pepperoni (or add your favorite toppings).
• Bake for 10 (in the top third of the oven), or just until cheese is melted and beginning to brown (or to your desired doneness)
• Slice and serve.
