List of Ingredients
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 package (1/4 oz) dry yeast
1 tbsp plus 2 tsp olive oil
3/4 cup pizza sauce
12 oz mozzarella, sliced
1-3/4 oz pepperoni slices (about 25 slices)
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/8 tsp black pepperRecipe
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a 12x9 inch baking sheet. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Stir in the yeast. Make a well in the center and add olive oil and 1 cup lukewarm water. Mix until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for 5 minutes.
Roll out dough and press into prepared baking sheet. Cover and allow to rest for 10 minutes at room temperature, then bake for 5-7 minutes.
Remove from oven and spread with pizza sauce, leaving a 3/4 inch border. Arrange the mozzarella on top and then the pepperoni. Sprinkle with oregano and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until golden, 15-20 minutes.
Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, slice the pizza into 6 square slices. Serve hot.
