Ingredients

Crust

  • 2¾-3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 package active dry yeast (¼ ounce)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 cup warm water (120° to 130°)
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil

Sauce

  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 ounces), undrained
  • 1 can tomato paste (6 ounces)
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon oregano

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, yeast, salt and brown sugar. Add water and oil; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth (about 5-7 minutes). Place dough in a bowl sprayed with non-stick cooking spray or dusted with flour. Cover bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and let stand for 10 minutes.
  • While dough rests, combine tomatoes, tomato paste, oil and seasonings in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Divide dough in half; press into two 15x10x1" baking pans (cookie sheets) sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Prick dough all over with a fork. Bake at 425 degrees or until lightly browned, about 12-16 minutes.
  • Spread sauce over crusts; top with cheese and favorite toppings. Bake pizza in preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Cut into squares and serve.
