Steps:

• For the dough: Combine the yeast, sugar, salt, and dry milk in a 2-quart size mixing bowl. Add the water and stir to mix. Let the mixture sit for 2 minutes or until the yeast starts to bubble. Add the oil to the dough mixture and stir to combine. Add the flour in one cup increments, stirring after each addition, until a dough forms and the flour is all combined. Turn the dough out onto a flat, lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes. Divide the dough into three equal balls. Place about 3 ounces of oil in the bottom of each 9-inch cake pan or cast iron skillet. Tilt the pans to spread the oil evenly. Using a rolling pin, roll out each ball of dough to a 9-inch circle and place in the prepared pans. Lightly coat each dough disk with cooking spray or oil and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm, draft-free location and let rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until puffy. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining all the ingredients until blended. Let sit at room temperature for at least one hour. The sauce can be made ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before using. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. For each 9-inch pizza: Spoon 1/3 cup of the sauce on the dough and spread to within 1 inch of the edges. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 ounces of shredded mozzarella cheese. Place toppings of choice in the following order: thin meats like pepperoni or canadian bacon, vegetables, ground or cubed meats, additional mozzarella cheese. Place the pizzas in the oven and cook until the outer crust is brown and the cheese is bubbly in the center (11-15 minutes, depending on how many toppings you use). Remove from the oven. Let cool for 2-3 minutes then remove from the pans to a cutting board and cut into wedges using a pizza cutter.
