Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbl nutritional yeast
- 1 cup warm water (baby bath temp)
- transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover. let rise for 2 hours.
Preparation
Whisk together all of the dry ingredients. Using a heavy spoon, mix in the water. Once the dough comes together dump out onto a work surface and knead for 5 min until the dough is smooth. Add more flour as needed so it doesn't stick.
Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Let rise for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 500 F. While oven is heating spread 2 Tbl olive oil in a 9x13
Layer of cheese on top of dough (about 2 cups) getting it all the way to the edges. Spread about a cup of pizza sauce on top of the cheese. But don't worry about evenly covering the top. Then add the toppings. I cooked my Beyond sausage for about 5 min first to get rid of some of the oil.
Bake on the lowest rack (uncovered) for 20-25 min. Should be plenty of bubbling action. Remove from oven and let rest in the dish for 10 min. Run a spatula along the edge to separate cheese from the dish. Pry an end up and carefully transfer the pizza to a cutting board by letting it slide out of the dish.
