Creating Witch’s Brew Pesto Pizza involves several simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C).
2. Prepare the Pizza Crust: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness, then transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
3. Spread Pesto: Evenly distribute the basil pesto over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the pesto.
5. Layer the Toppings: Place artichoke hearts, cherry tomatoes, black olives, and red onion on top of the cheese, distributing them evenly.
6. Season It Up: If you like some heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the toppings.
7. Drizzle Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the pizza to enhance flavor and aid in browning.
8. Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown.
9. Garnish: Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Then, garnish with fresh basil leaves.
10. Slice: Cut the pizza into equal slices and serve warm.
