How to Make the Best 2 Minute Homemade Pizza Sauce

This quick and easy homemade pizza sauce is the secret to restaurant-quality pizza at home. Ready in just two minutes, this simple blend of fresh tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and quality olive oil tastes far superior to jarred sauces and costs a fraction of the price.

Why Make Your Own Pizza Sauce?

There’s no comparison between homemade and store-bought pizza sauce. When you blend your own sauce, you control every ingredient—no added preservatives, no excessive sodium, and no strange flavorings. The fresh parsley and rosemary add an herbaceous depth that transforms a basic pizza into something truly special. Plus, the whole process takes less time than it takes for your oven to preheat.

The Perfect Balance of Flavors

The combination of white wine and fresh herbs creates a sophisticated sauce that’s far more interesting than tomato paste alone. The red pepper flakes add just a hint of heat, while the garlic and fresh parsley brighten the whole mixture. This is the kind of sauce that makes your homemade pizza taste like it came straight from a neighborhood Italian restaurant.

Store It for Later

This sauce keeps well in the refrigerator for up to a week, making it perfect to prepare ahead of time. You can blend a double batch and have homemade pizza sauce ready whenever the craving strikes. It’s also freezer-friendly, so don’t hesitate to make extra.

Instructions

Pizza Sauce

  1. Add all ingredients to food processor and lock lid. Pulse 5 to 7 times to break up ingredients.
  2. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds, or until tomatoes, garlic and herbs are well chopped.

Notes

  • This sauce is best used fresh but can be stored for up to one week when refrigerated.
  • For a smoother sauce, blend longer. For a chunkier texture, pulse fewer times.
