TO PREPARE AN EASY “Fleischmann’s“ PIZZA CRUST:
3+¼ cups all-purpose flour, you can use more if needed.
2 envelopes.Of “Fleischmann’s“ Pizza Crust Yeast.
1 large sp.Of brown sugar.
2 Small sp.Of salt.
1+⅓ Cups.Of very warm water.
⅓ Cup.Of olive oil.
FOR TOPPINGS, I USED:
1 Pkg.Of 6-oz Of “Hormel“ Pepperoni.
1 Cup. Of shredded mozzarella cheese, you can use more to taste.
PREPARATION:
Step 1:
For the sauce – In a medium bowl, I mixed all the sauce ingredients with 1/2 cup of water; and I set it aside allowing the flavors to develop while I prepared the crust. And I froze the rest of the paste.
Step 2:
For the crusts: I combined 2 cups of all-purpose flour, with dry yeast, brown sugar, and salt together.
Step 3:
Then I added the water and olive oil and blend well until thoroughly combined for about 1 minute. Slowly I added sufficiently leftover flour until a smooth, sticky ball of dough is formed.
Step 4:
I kneaded for around 5 minutes until the dough was smooth and elastic on a floured surface.
Step 5:
If needed, I added more flour, then I left the dough to rest.
Step 6:
I cut the dough into two parts, and I pat each half into a 12-inch greased pizza pan or I rolled dough to match the pans, with floured hands.
Step 7:
I preheated the oven to 425 degrees F.
Step 8:
For pizzas: I covered the crusts with butter, grated cheese, and pepperoni.
Step 9:
I baked until the crusts are browned and the cheese is bubbly, for around 15 to 20 minutes.
I rotate the pizza pans between the top and bottom oven racks halfway through baking for the best results.
Enjoy.
