(A family favorite!)


Batter
Cooking Spray
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 envelopes RapidRise yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup very warm water (120°F to 130°F)
2 tablespoons olive oil
 
Topping
1/2 cup pizza sauce
favorite pizza toppings
2 cups shredded mozzarella  cheese
 
Mix batter ingredients in a pre-sprayed 9-1/2-inch deep dish pie plate. (I like to mix the batter in a separate bowl and then proceed as directed.)
Spread pizza sauce evenly over batter.


Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake by placing in a COLD oven; set temperature to 350°F.
Bake for 30 minutes or until done.




Note: Do not use regular yeast.  It must be a rapid or quick rise yeast.  I use Fleischmann's RapidRise yeast.  I top the sauce with green peppers, onions, garlic, and olives and then put on the cheese.  Use whatever toppings you prefer.
