Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 2
Place the tortilla in a 12-inch cast iron pan or baking sheet (max crispiness option: place the tortilla on a stainless steel, oven-safe cooling rack, and place that on the baking sheet).
Step 3
Spread sauce evenly across the tortilla, leaving ½ inch around the edges. Sprinkle with cheese and toppings.
Step 4
Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbling (no sooner!) and the edges of the tortilla are lightly browned, about 10 to 14 minutes. Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Step 5

Chef's notes
Toaster oven option:
Bake the pizza directly on the rack of your toaster oven at 400 degrees for 8 to 11 minutes.
Tortilla note:
Make sure to check the ingredients list on the whole wheat tortillas. It should list about 5 ingredients, not 25. I buy mine at health food stores and store them in the fridge or freezer and they almost never go bad.
