Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Place the sausage on a foil-lined baking sheet and cook, turning over half way through, to an internal temperature of 150°F. Then set aside to cool before slicing.
Lightly grease a baking sheet or whatever kind of flat oven safe baking pan you are using to cook the pizza in, with non-stick spray.
Clean and dry the counter well (make sure your hands are dried well before working with the dough). Sprinkle the counter with flour, place the dough on top of the flour, coating each side so the dough doesn't stick.
Begin rolling out the dough using a rolling pin to stretch the dough to fit the baking sheet or pan you are using. Make sure it is being stretched evenly and avoid creating thin spots (if the dough starts to stick while stretching it, sprinkle flour to prevent it from sticking).
Gently place the dough on the baking sheet or pan.
Evenly ladle and spread a layer of sauce on the dough, leaving about an inch of dough without sauce around the edge.
Evenly spread the mozzarella and sausage over the sauce.
Bake the pizza in the oven for 10 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake until the crust is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted (approximately 8-10 minutes more).
Let the pizza sit for 2-3 minutes. Cut the burrata into chunks and spread out over the pizza. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with parmesan and red pepper flakes if desired.
Cut into slices and serve.
