Pizza Dough and Toppings
Method
Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually until a dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Toppings
While the dough is rising, cook the Italian sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned. Drain excess fat. If using frozen meatballs, thaw and dice them into smaller pieces.

Assemble the Pizza
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Once the dough has risen, punch it down and spread it into a greased rectangular baking pan. Spread pizza sauce over the dough, then sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly. Layer the cooked sausage, pepperoni slices, and diced meatballs on top. Finish with grated Parmesan cheese.

Bake the Pizza
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
