Ingredients

Scale

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F/43°C)
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for greasing
1 1/2 cups tomato pizza sauce
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
Add the warm water and 2 tablespoons olive oil to the dry ingredients and stir until a rough dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Lightly grease a large bowl with olive oil and place the dough inside, turning once to coat with oil.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).
Lightly grease a full sheet pan (about 18×13 inches) with olive oil.
Turn the risen dough out onto the sheet pan and gently stretch and press it to cover the entire pan evenly.
Spread the tomato pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle dried oregano, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes over the cheese.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into 12 pieces and serving.
