What type of crust are you using? I use the thin pizza crust and evenly put the ingredients on top. Make sure that you don't over cook the crust or you will have filing for your drive way! Also, since tomatoes aren't the best yet, I have been using the grape tomatoes and they cook up just fine.

Keep trying and see what works for your oven.

Good luck.

or cook it longer?There could be a few reasons why your pizza crust is not cooking evenly in the middle. Here are a few suggestions to try:1. Check your oven temperature: Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before putting in the pizza. If your oven temperature is too low, the crust may take longer to cook and result in a doughy middle.2. Use a pizza stone or preheated baking sheet: A pizza stone or preheated baking sheet can help distribute heat evenly and prevent a doughy middle. Place the pizza on the hot surface before putting it in the oven.3. Roll out the dough evenly: If the dough is thicker in the middle, it will take longer to cook. Make sure to roll out the dough evenly to ensure even cooking.4. Avoid overloading toppings in the middle: Too many toppings in the middle of the pizza can create a barrier and prevent the heat from reaching the crust. Spread out the toppings evenly on the pizza.5. Consider pre-baking the crust: If you're using a lot of toppings, you may want to pre-bake the crust for a few minutes before adding the toppings. This will help prevent a soggy middle.6. Adjust cooking time: If you've tried all of the above and are still having issues with a doughy middle, try extending the cooking time by a few minutes. Just make sure to keep an eye on the pizza to prevent burning.Adding tomatoes after cooking the dough or cooking the pizza longer may also help, but it's best to try the above suggestions first to see if they make a difference. Happy pizza-making!
