Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon instant yeast
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup warm water
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
– 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1 package pepperoni slices
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the warm water and olive oil, and mix until a dough forms.
2. Knead the dough for 5 minutes on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic.
3. Press the dough into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan, pressing it up the sides to create a thick, Detroit-style crust.
4. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
5. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce, and then top with the pepperoni slices.
6. Bake at 450°F for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Let the pizza cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a crispy crust, try preheating your oven with a baking steel or pizza stone. You can also experiment with different toppings, such as sausage, mushrooms, or olives.
