Instructions
  • For Basic Pizza Dough:
    Pour 1 ½ cup warm water into a large bowl; sprinkle with yeast and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes
  • Whisk sugar, oil, and salt into yeast mixture. Add flour and stir until a sticky dough forms. Transfer dough to an oiled bowl and brush top with oil.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draft-free place until dough has doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 1 or 2 times before using.
  • Dough can be stored in an oiled bowl, covered with plastic, in refrigerator up to 2 hours. To freeze, wrap dough in plastic and freeze in a resealable freezer bag up to 3 months.

  • Assembling pizza:
    Pre-heat oven to highest temperature (appx 550 degrees).
  • Using 1-inch cookie cutter; cut out circles in each bologna slice.
  • Using your fingers, flatten the pizza dough in a circular motion on the pizza stone.
  • Thinly spread pizza sauce on flattened dough then sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Top with onions, mushrooms, red peppers and bologna.
  • Bake for approx 10-15 minutes or until cheese melts.
  • Cut pizza into slices and serve with your favorite beverage.
  • Happy Date Night!
