Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough
5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 cup Grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon fast-rising dry yeast
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups cold water
¼ cup olive oil or vegetable oil
For the Sauce
1 cup Tomato Sauce
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp oregano
½ tsp basil
1 tsp sugar (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
For the Toppings
2 cups Shredded Mozzarella
Pepperoni
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan
Instructions
Mix 4 cups of the flour with 1 cup of parmesan, your yeast, salt, water, and oil in the bowl. Stir until a soft dough forms. Dust your clean surface with flour then knead it into a ball. Gradually add the remaining flour.
Divide your dough into four pieces as each one will make a 12-inch pizza. Gently brush 1 dough ball with olive oil and cover loosely with plastic. Let it stand for 15-30 minutes. Store or freeze the other dough balls for later.
Preheat your oven to 400 °F. Make sure your oven is properly preheated before placing the pizza inside. Uncover your oiled dough and knead it into a 12-inch pizza. Bake the pizza for 6 minutes.
Add your tomato sauce, mozzarella, remaining parmesan, and pepperoni.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, watching carefully. Make sure your cheese and crust doesn’t burn. Pizza is done when the edges are golden brown.
