Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine water, yeast, and sugar and let it sit for 5 minutes, or until bubbly.
- Add salt and oil, then mix in flour 1 cup at a time with a wooden spoon until combined and the dough is soft and slightly sticky. Knead for about 3 minutes (dough will be sticky and will stick to your hands).
- Cover the dough with a tea towel and let rise at room temperature for 30–45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to preheat as well.
- Prepare sauce by heating all ingredients in a saucepan and bringing it to a simmer, but do not let boil.
- This dough makes TWO 12-inch pizza crusts. Divide dough into two pieces and roll each out onto a floured surface to about ½ inch thick. Cut a little pumpkin stem on top.
- Sprinkle cornmeal onto a pizza peel and, working with one crust at a time, transfer the rolled-out dough to the peel. Brush with olive oil and poke with a fork a few times to eliminate bubbling while baking.
- Use the peel to transfer the crust to the preheated pizza stone and blind bake for 6–8 minutes. Remove from the oven, add sauce, cheese, and arrange pepperoni to form a pumpkin face. Bake for 8–10 more minutes.
Notes
- STORE. Leftover pizza can be kept in an airtight bag or container and stored in the fridge for about 4 days.
- To reheat. You could reheat it in the microwave, but at my house, a favorite way to reheat a slice of pizza is in a skillet.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat then place 1-2 slices of the cold pizza. Let the bottom crisp up for 3-4 minutes.
- Add a teaspoon of water to the side of the pizza, lower the heat, cover it with a lid, and let it warm up for another 2-3 minutes.
