This creamy White Garlic Pizza Sauce is a delicious alternative to traditional tomato sauce on pizza. It’s quick to make with simple ingredients, adding a rich and savory flavor to your homemade pizza.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk

  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, creating a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring no lumps form.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.

  7. Stir in the chopped parsley, if using.
  8. Use immediately as a base for your homemade pizza.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use whole milk or add a splash of heavy cream at the end. You can also experiment with different cheeses, such as mozzarella or provolone.
