Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, mix 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp salt. Add 1 cup warm water (110°F) and 2 tbsp olive oil. Stir and knead for 8-10 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 1 hour until doubled.
Step 2: Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook 8 oz Italian sausage with 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried basil, and 2 cloves minced garlic until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.
Step 3: Preheat oven to 475°F. Lightly oil a 12x16-inch sheet pan and sprinkle with 1 tbsp cornmeal. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle matching the pan size and transfer to the pan.
Step 4: Spread 1 cup pizza sauce evenly over the dough. Scatter the cooked sausage over the sauce. Top with 2 cups shredded Provel cheese blend and sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 5: Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned on edges. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares.
