Toppings
Dough Preparation
1. Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Mix Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Knead the Dough
Mix until a dough starts to form. Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Let it Rise
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Assembling the Pizza
5. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
6. Prepare the Dough
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two equal portions. Roll out each portion into a circle that fits your pizza pan.
7. Layer the First Crust
Place one dough circle in the bottom of the pizza pan. Spread half of the pizza sauce on top of the crust.
8. Add Toppings
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by half of the pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, and olives.
9. Layer the Second Crust
Roll out the second dough circle and place it over the toppings. Seal the edges by pressing them together. Spread the remaining pizza sauce on top.
10. Top with Cheese
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top of the second crust.
