    Raw pizza dough on a peel surrounded by small bowls containing garlic, spices, shredded cheese, salt, and olive oil on a light surface.
  • Leaving a 1-inch border from the edge, brush olive oil and minced garlic all over the dough. It's okay if the minced garlic doesn't cover all the space. Sprinkle garlic powder evenly over the oil and garlic.
