Ingredients
Scale
- 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes (San Marzano recommended for best flavor)
- 6 ounce can tomato paste
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients. You will not be turning on the stove for this recipe.
- Pour the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste into a medium bowl.
- Add the minced fresh garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, sugar, and black pepper to the bowl.
- Pour in the olive oil.
- Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a standard blender. Blend until the sauce is smooth and thick. If you prefer a slightly chunkier sauce, pulse briefly.

Notes
- For an even thicker pizza sauce, drain some of the excess liquid from the crushed tomatoes before blending.
