Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for oiling dough bowl
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon rapid rise yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 14-ounce jars of pizza sauce
  • 2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6-8 ounces sliced pepperoni
  • 16 ounces shredded and/or cubed mozzarella cheese

Preparation

  1. Combine flour, salt, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl and mix until just combined. Pour in 1 cup warm water, then continue to mix until dough begins to hold together. If dough is too wet add a little bit more flour.
  2. Oil a separate (large) bowl with olive oil. Roll pizza dough into a ball and place in the oiled bowl. Cover with cloth or plastic wrap and allow dough to proof for 2 hours (ideally in a warm place). Dough should double in size.
  3. Preheat the oven 500˚. Pour olive oil into a 9”x13” inch metal pan. Make sure the sides are at least 2-3” deep.
  4. Place the dough into the pan and then gently stretch the dough to the edges of the pan.
  5. Reserve 1 cup of the pizza sauce. Pour pizza sauce over the dough and sprinkle herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper over the sauce. Cover sauce with cheese, making sure the cheese reaches all the way to the edges of the pan. Top with pepperoni. Pour remaining pizza sauce over the top of the pie in three lines.
  6. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the edges become dark and crispy.
