Grandma PP’s Deep Dish Pizza Dough

2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons yeast
2 tablespoons olive oil (plus more for oiling other things)
5 cups flour (all purpose)
2 teaspoons salt

Combine water, sugar, yeast and oil in bowl of mixer and mix. Turn mixer on to speed 1 and start adding in the flour a cup at a time until 2.5 cups have been added. Add in salt and then continue adding in flour until the flour is incorporated and the sides of the bowl are clean. Knead for 3-5 minutes until a smoothish dough forms.

Meanwhile, oil a large bowl with olive oil. Once dough is done kneading, scrap it into the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for 24-48 hours.
________________
About 2-3 hours before it’s time to eat, get the dough out of the fridge. Heavily oil an extra large sheet pan with olive oil or split the dough into two - placing each one in an oiled pan. Stretch the dough out slightly, using gravity, into the shape of the pan. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let rest for 45-60 minutes or until it’s warm and easy to stretch.

Once the dough has finished resting and is soft and stretchy, oil it completely with olive oil, carefully flip the dough, and then push and stretch it to almost fit the pan.

Add desired toppings and bake the pizza at 500 degrees for 18-20 minutes. For an extra crispy top, cook for two more minutes under the broiler.

Let rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving!

Easy Pizza Sauce

1 14.5 can of Tomato Sauce
1 6 oz can Tomato Paste
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1-2 teaspoons of garlic powder

Mix all ingredients and use to your preference! It’s a simple sauce but it gives an intense tomato flavor.
