Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine and Knead Dough

    Pour the activated yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Topping Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare Pepperoni Side

    Spread pizza sauce evenly over one half of the rolled-out pizza dough. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices.

  2. 6

    Prepare Veggie Side

    On the other half of the dough, drizzle olive oil, then add diced bell pepper, sliced red onion, and sliced mushrooms. Sprinkle with oregano and black pepper.

Baking

  1. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 8

    Bake Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then slice and serve.
