AUNT ALTA'S CRAZY CRUST PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Have ready a 12-14" round pizza pan with a rim (or use a 10x15" jelly roll pan), lightly greased with olive oil.
• Combine flour, salt, oregano, pepper, eggs, and mikl until smooth.
• Pour crust batter into the pan, tilting the pan to coat evenly; you want the entire bottom covered and it will appear to be very very low and thin.
• Sprinkle cooked sausage (or pepperoni slices) all over the batter, then do the same with the garlic,onions,green peppers, and mushrooms if using, but DO NOT ADD SAUCE OR CHEESE YET.
• Bake on a low rack in preheated 425 F oven for 25-30 minutes until deep golden brown (to give it a crispy crust).
• Meanwhile mix together the sauce ingredients.
• When pizza is ready, drizzle the sauce over the pizza as evenly as you can and sprinkle cheese over the top, bearing in mind that if you add extra sauce/cheese the pizza will not be as crispy.
• Bake another 10-15 minutes or until sauce is heated through and cheese has melted.
• Cut into squares and serve, this is going to have a very thin crust and depending on how many toppings you added, might be a bit floppy so have a fork handy (my aunt always ate pizza with a fork).

AUNTIE ANNE'S® DEEP DISH PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve contents of 1 yeast packet in 1 1/4 cups lukewarm tap water (105 degrees F). Add dough mix to yeast/water mixture. Using a rubber spatula (or your hands), mix until dough ball forms.*
• Turn dough ball onto lightly floured surface and knead until soft, slightly tacky dough is formed (approximately 5-7 minutes). Add a small amount of flour if dough is too sticky.
• Place dough ball into a large bowl that has been coated with nonstick spray. Coat a sheet of plastic wrap with nonstick spray and place on top of dough ball, tucking sides down around dough (to prevent dough from drying out).
• Place bowl in a warm spot (85-95 degrees F) for 30 minutes so the dough can rest (i.e., place bowl by a sunny window, on top of or near a warm oven, or on top of a refrigerator).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray pizza pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour so the dough won't stick. Place dough ball in center of pan and gently stretch the dough out to the edge. Press edges up the side of the pan to contain sauce.
• Pour pizza sauce in center of stretched dough and spread evenly, leaving an inch of uncovered dough around the edge.
• Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over the sauce. *Optional: add your favorite seasonings, meats, or vegetable toppings.
• Place pizza on bottom rack of oven and bake 20-25 minutes or until the cheese starts to bubble and the bottom crust is crisp. Let baked pizza cool for 5 minutes before serving.
