• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup warm water (110°F)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup pizza sauce
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
• 1/2 cup cooked Italian sausage, crumbled
• 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (green and red)
• 1/2 cup sliced onions
• 1/4 cup sliced black olives
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit a greased pizza pan.
6. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
7. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then layer with pepperoni, sausage, bell peppers, onions, and olives.
8. Sprinkle oregano and garlic powder on top.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve hot.
