Let\u2019s face it: Any pizza is good pizza. With our easy recipe for sausage pizza, you can have pizzeria-quality pizza at home, full stop. It\u2019s so good, you’ll never have to do delivery or suffer through cardboard frozen pizza ever again.<\/p>\n
There are a couple things that make our sausage pizza unique. First, our homemade pizza dough rests and ferments overnight in the refrigerator. This gives the flour time to hydrate and the gluten to relax, so it\u2019s easier to roll out when you\u2019re ready to use it. Because of this step, you need to plan ahead at least one day.<\/p>\n
Secondly, our trick is to bake the dough without any toppings, which allows the crust to get crisp on the outside but soft and pillowy inside. Because conventional ovens don\u2019t get as hot as a pizzeria oven (unless you have something like an Ooni pizza oven<\/a>), this extra step ensures a well-baked crust.<\/p>\n After you add the toppings, bake the pizza until everything is nice and melty. Slice with your pizza cutter<\/a>, and serve the pizza while it\u2019s still hot and bubbly. Like many of our favorite pizza recipes<\/a>, this makes two sausage pizzas, so have a pizza party or freeze one for another day.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Divide the pizza dough<\/a> in half. With greased fingers, pat each half onto an ungreased 12-inch pizza pan, then prick the dough thoroughly with a fork. Bake until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip<\/em>: Remove the dough from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before you want to use it so it comes to room temperature. This will make it easier to stretch out onto the pan. If the dough doesn\u2019t easily stretch into place, let it rest on the pan for a couple of minutes, then go back to patting it out.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until it\u2019s no longer pink. Make sure to break it up into crumbles while it cooks so you have bite-size pieces on your pizza. Drain the fat out of the pan and set aside.<\/p>\n Spread pizza sauce over the baked dough, making sure to leave room at the outside edge for the crust. Top with cheese, then onion, green pepper, mushrooms and sausage. Bake at 400\u00b0 until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, 12 to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Remove the pizza from the oven and serve with optional toppings: grated Parmesan cheese, crushed red pepper flakes and fresh oregano leaves.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip<\/em>: Cook each pizza individually. Cooking them both at the same time could result in an uneven bake. If you do both in the oven at the same time, rotate them between the two racks halfway through.<\/p>\n Keep leftover sausage pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last up to three days. To reheat pizza<\/a>, pop it in a 400\u00b0 oven for a few minutes, or put it in the toaster oven. Microwaving leftover pizza is fine, but it will be less crispy. And of course, cold pizza is sometimes just perfect.<\/p>\n You can definitely freeze sausage pizza. For unbaked pizzas, wrap tightly and freeze for up to two months. To use, unwrap the pizzas and place on pans, then let them thaw in the refrigerator. Bake the pizzas at 400\u00b0 until the crust is golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes.<\/p>\n You need to cook the sausage before putting it on a pizza. Home ovens don\u2019t get hot enough to cook the sausage on top of the pizza, so cooking it beforehand ensures it is safe to eat.<\/p>\n Yes, you can use spaghetti sauce<\/a> or any pasta sauce on pizza, especially if you\u2019re going with a traditional red sauce. You can even use crushed tomatoes and season with a bit of salt, pepper and oregano. Just make sure not to put too much sauce on your pizza or it will get soggy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Make any night pizza night at home with this recipe for sausage pizza.
