Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups water warm, 110-115°F
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Rapid Rise Yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 ¼ - 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon cornmeal
  • olive oil for brushing
  • 1 cup pepperoni
  • 1/4 cup olive

Pizza Sauce

  • 3 ounce cans tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine water, yeast, and sugar and let it sit for 5 minutes, or until bubbly.
  2. 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).
  3. Cover the dough with a tea towel and let rise at room temperature for 30–45 minutes.
  4. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to preheat as well.
  5. Prepare sauce by heating all ingredients in a saucepan and bringing it to a simmer, but do not let boil.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
