Equipment

  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • glass measuring cups
  • large mixing bowl
  • spatula
  • sheet pan
  • disposable shower cap

Ingredients

Pizza Dough

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • teaspoon instant yeast
  • 2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups warm water
  • 2-3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil for the pan and for your hands

Pizza Toppings

  • ½-1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • cup jarred marinara
  • 2 cups low-moisture shredded mozzarella
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup cooked ground beef and/or sausage crumbles
  • other optional toppings

Instructions

The Pizza Dough

  • Add the flour, salt, and yeast to a large mixing bowl and whisk together.
  • Pour in the warm water and mix until there are no dry pockets left. The dough will be extremely stiff and sticky.
  • Cover with a disposable shower cap or plastic wrap. Let it rest in a room temp/warm-ish area for 2 hours.
  • After 2 hours, pour the dough onto a well oiled sheet pan. Oil your hands and using your fingers, start to spread the dough towards the edges of the pan.
  • Once you get it spread to almost the edges, cover it with a damp towel and let it rest for about hour. The dough will continue to grow during this rise period.
  • After the second rest period, oil your fingers again and work the dough toward the edges of the pan. Use your fingertips to remove any super large bubbles.

Pizza Toppings

  • Sprinkle the dough with the Italian seasoning.
  • Spoon the marinara over the pizza dough evenly.
  • Top with cheese and your preferred toppings. We used a ground beef/sausage combo this time.
  • Bake in a preheated 450°F oven for 20-30 minutes or until everything is nice and melty.
  • Top with grated parmesan, slice and enjoy!
