Ingredients

2⅔ cups all-purpose flour

¾ cup powdered milk

2 tablespoons sugar

1 package quick-rise yeast

1 teaspoon salt

1⅔ cups warm water (110-115°F)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

½ pound Italian sausage

½ pound ground chuck

½ teaspoon pepper

½ teaspoon salt

1 (8 oz) block mozzarella cheese, shredded

1 (6 oz) can tomato paste

1½ cups water

⅓ cup olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

½ tablespoon dried oregano

½ tablespoon dried basil

½ teaspoon dried rosemary

Instructions

  1. Combine tomato paste, water, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and rosemary in a saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Cool and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 475°F. Spray an 18×13-inch sheet pan with non-stick spray and line with parchment paper.
  3. Mix flour, powdered milk, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.
  4. Combine warm water and oil, then mix into dry ingredients until a soft batter forms.
  5. Spread dough evenly on the pan with fingers. If sticky, let it rest 5 minutes.
  6. Bake crust for 8-10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  7. Cook sausage and ground chuck with salt and pepper in a skillet. Drain and set aside.
  8. Spread sauce over crust. Add meat, then sprinkle cheese.
  9. Bake at 475°F for 8-10 minutes until cheese browns.
  10. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Letting the sauce sit overnight enhances its flavor.

Use lightly oiled hands to handle the dough more easily.

Double the recipe using two pans if feeding a crowd.

Pre-bake crust longer for a crispier texture.
