Equipment

  • Pizza Peel or Pan (Can also use a cookie sheet)
  • Pizza Stone Optional
  • Pizza Cutter

Ingredients
  

  • 1x 12" Pizza Dough Make your own or use a store-bought dough.
  • .5 cups Pizza Sauce You can make your own sauce or use a store-bought sauce.
  • 2 ounces Salame Optionally cut into quarters. Use more or less depending on how heavy you like the distribution to be.
  • 4 ounces Your preferred pizza cheese (Equals 1 cup) I enjoy a mixed Italian blend.
  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour for rolling out the dough.
  • 1 teaspoon Olive oil to oil your pan.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Prepare your pizza dough. While you can use most freshly made doughs about 10 minutes after making it, most store-bought pizza doughs must be out of the fridge for at least 30 minutes to warm up to room temperature. Check your specific instructions if you're using store-bought.
  • Some people roll out the dough with a rolling pin, and some like flattening it into a disc shape with their hands. I say you stick to what method you are most comfortable with. Use some flour to keep it from sticking to your hands, the counter, or your rolling pin.
  • If you use a pizza pan in the oven, most are non-stick, but adding a thin coat of olive oil which helps prevent any sticking and promotes even browning on the bottom of your pizza.
  • Place the dough on the peel or pan.
    Once your dough is on the peel/pan, you may need to straighten the edges with your fingers.
  • Take a spoon and apply the sauce a spoonful at a time. Take the back of the spoon and spread it out over the dough, leaving about 1" of crust without sauce around the edge. Many people like using a "bullseye" pattern, swirling the sauce from the center out. Start with less sauce and add more as needed. It is easier to add more than take it away.
  • Once you're happy with your sauce distribution, add a thin layer of turkey pepperoni.
  • Sprinkle your cheese of choice evenly over the top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
