Homemade Pepperoni Pizza

Ingredients Contadina(R) Quick Pizza Sauce: ½ (12 ounce) can CONTADINA® Tomato Paste 1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon onion powder ½ teaspoon sugar ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Fleischmann’s® Easy Pizza Crust:
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 (.25 ounce) envelopes FLEISCHMANN’S® Pizza Crust Yeast or RapidRise® Yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ⅓ cups very warm water (120 degrees F to 130 degrees F)
⅓ cup oil

Toppings:

1 (6 ounce) package HORMEL® Pepperoni

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste

Directions

Step 1For sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients with 1/2 cup water in a medium bowl; set aside for flavors to develop while making crust. Freeze remaining paste .

Step 2For crusts: Combine 2 cups of flour with the dry yeast, sugar and salt. Add the water and oil and mix until well blended (about 1 minute). Gradually add enough remaining flour slowly, until a soft, sticky dough ball is formed.

Step 3Knead for about 4 minutes, on a floured surface, until dough is smooth and elastic. Add more flour, if needed. (If using RapidRise® Yeast, let dough rest, covered, for 10 minutes.)

Step 4Divide dough in half. Pat each half (with floured hands) into a 12-inch greased pizza pan OR roll dough to fit pans.

Step 5For pizzas: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Top crusts with sauce, pepperoni and cheese.

Step 6Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until crusts are browned and cheese is bubbly. For best results, rotate pizza pans between top and bottom oven racks halfway through baking.
