Instructions
Pizza Dough
  1. Preheat oven to 550°F.
  2. In a stand mixer add in 1 cup of warm water that is about 100°F. Add 1 packet of quick rise yeast and sugar and stir and allow to bloom for about 5 minutes.
  3. Once it has started to bloom add in 2 cups of flour and salt and with dough hook allow to combine. Once combined, let it knead for about 5 minutes. You’ll want the dough to be a bit sticky. If it’s too sticky, add more flour, If it’s too dry, add more water.
  4. Turn off mixer and allow to sit for about 5 minutes. While it’s doing that oil your cast iron skillet. I add EVOO and use a brush and wipe it around all sides.
Topping Pizza
  1. Place dough on oiled cast iron skillet and push to all meet ends of skillet.
  2. Top with sauce, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, onions and pepperoni.
  3. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning or oregano.
  4. Once oven is heated to 550°F, place in oven and set timer for 10 minutes. At 10 minutes, check the pizza. If it needs more time, increase time by 2 minute increments. I found that the perfect time for my oven is 12 minutes.
