Equipment
- 8x8 or 8x10 square pan
Ingredients
- 3 tsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 lb Pizza dough
- 3 oz Pepperoni sliced and then quartered
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese cut into 1/4 inch cubes
- 1.5 cups Marinara sauce
Instructions
- Position an oven rack in the bottom of the oven and preheat to the highest temperature setting, 500 to 550 degrees F.
- Pour the oil into an 8x8 or 8x10 square metal pan or baking dish (use what you have). Put the Pizza Dough in the pan and gently stretch it out evenly to fit so the dough reaches the corners. (If the dough is being temperamental, set it aside for another 10 minutes to relax and try again).
- Layer the pepperoni on the dough. Then lay the cheese cubes all over, especially around the perimeter up to the edge of the pan (this creates the crispy cheese crust). Ladle the pizza sauce on top.
- Bake in the oven until bubbly and golden and a crispy cheese crust has formed, 10 to 15 minutes. Using a spatula, loosen up the edges and place on a cutting board to cool for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Slice into squares and serve.
