Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine flour, salt, sugar, yeast, and oregano in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the warm water, olive oil, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. Mix on low speed 2 for 5 minutes.
  • Remove dough and transfer to an oiled baking sheet. Shape into a ball, cover with a heavy cloth and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
  • When the dough is done rising, knead a few more times and shape into a ball or rectangle. Slice a few deep cuts into the top, cover with the cloth, and let rise for 40 more minutes.
  • Remove the towel and brush the top of the dough lightly with egg white or milk. Arrange about 10 pepperoni slices on top of the dough if you'd like. Bake in an oven preheated to 350°F for 40 minutes. With 10 minutes remaining, top with ¼ cup of remaining mozzarella cheese and return to the oven.
  • Remove from the oven when done baking and transfer to a wire rack to cool. Let cool completely before slicing.
