How To Make homemade pepperoni pizza

Step 1

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in a medium bowl. Let sit for a few minutes.

Step 2

Add flour, oil, and salt. Knead about 20 times or until dough is smooth and elastic. Let dough rest for 5-20 minutes.
Step 3

Shape dough with hands and put in pizza pans. Bake at 425 for 10 minutes.
Step 4

Put sauce, cheese and pepperoni on crust and bake for 12-15 minutes more or until crust is light brown.
Step 5

You can put other toppings on you like.
Step 6

Sometimes I like to put the cooked pizza under the hot broiler for 5 minutes to make the crust a little 'stiff'. My kids like it this way.
