Ingredients

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F
  2. Place your pizza pan in the oven to heat – though a bit tricky to transfer it does speed up the cooking process.
  3. In a small bowl mix warm water and yeast and let sit 5 mins until yeast proofs.
  4. Once the yeast has proofed add the full mixture to 2½ cups flour in a large bowl and mix well. This can be done in a mixer or by hand. Add additional 2 ½ cups flour, International Collection Garlic Flavored Olive Oil and salt, knead until smooth. Cover bowl with saran wrap. Let dough rest in a ball for 10 to 20 mins.
  5. Remove dough from bowl and add more flour as needed (a little at a time) to alleviate the stickiness of the dough if needed.
  6. If you like a thicker pizza split the dough in half, if you like a thinner crust split in 4 and roll each ball of dough flat to the size of your pan. On the base of your pizza dust some polenta this helps prevent it sticking to the pan.
  7. Now comes the fun part! Top your pizza dough however you would like. We used some of our basic tomato sauce and lots of grated cheese, mozzarella, pre-cooked mushrooms and prosciutto ham. Be sure and leave a ¾-inch space on the edge for crust.
  8. Carefully place your pizza on in the hot pan – we used a flat metal kitchen tool to help transfer the pizza.
  9. Cook for 15 – 20 mins depending on the thickness.
Serve immediately……so so tasty!
