For our family, there's no pizza as satisfying as this one with its yeast-raised crust and old-fashioned flavor.
Ingredients
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 can (8 ounces) pizza sauce
1 pound ground beef, browned and drained
1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups sliced pepperoni
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions
In a bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Stir in sugar, salt, oil and flour. Beat vigorously 20 strokes. Cover and let rest about 15 minutes.
With buttered fingers, pat crust into a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Cover with pizza sauce. Top with next four ingredients. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 425° for 15-20 minutes or until crust and cheese are lightly browned.
