Making an authentic Extravaganza pizza at home is easy because you likely have most of what you need in your kitchen already.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• For the pizza dough:

• All-purpose or bread flour

• Water

• Granulated yeast

• Salt

• Olive oil or cooking oil

• For the sauce and toppings:

• Pizza sauce or marinara sauce

• Shredded mozzarella cheese

• Pepperoni slices

• Italian sausage crumbles (pre-cooked)

• Ham slices

• Bacon slices or bits

• Ground beef (pre-cooked)

• Green bell peppers

• Red onions

• Canned black olives

• Fresh mushrooms

• Any other desired toppings like pineapple or jalapeños

•  Make the Pizza Dough:

• 3 cups bread or all-purpose flour

• 1 packet instant dry yeast (or 2 1⁄4 tsp)

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 1⁄4 cup warm water

Step by Step Recipe

• Make the Pizza Dough
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, salt and olive oil.
• Add in the warm water and mix together using a spoon or spatula until combined.
• Turn out the shaggy dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth, elastic and not sticky.
• Place dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour in a warm area until puffy.
• Step 2 – Prepare Your Toppings
• Cook any raw sausage, bacon or ground beef ahead of time. Crumble or chop.
• Slice pepperoni and ham into smaller rounds if desired.
• Chop bell peppers and onions into bite-sized pieces.
• Drain and slice black olives.
• Clean and slice fresh mushrooms.
• Use shredded whole milk mozzarella for the best melt factor. Grated parmesan is also a nice addition.
• Step 3 – Roll Out the Dough
• If the dough springs back, let it rest 5 minutes before trying again. The gluten just needs time to relax!
• If you have a pizza stone, sprinkle it with cornmeal then transfer the stretched dough round to the stone. Or, use a pizza pan lightly misted with cooking spray.
• Step 4 – Load it Up with Sauces and Toppings
• Use a spoon to spread your pizza sauce evenly over the entire dough round, going all the way to the edges.
• Sprinkle mozzarella over the sauce as your cheese base. Add parmesan if desired.
• Top with pepperoni slices, ham, Italian sausage, bacon crumbles and cooked ground beef. Press meats gently into the cheese.
• Next add your chopped vegetables – peppers, onions, mushrooms, black olives.
• Finally, sprinkle over any extra cheese to glue everything together.
• Step 5 – Bake Until Golden Brown and Crispy
• Use a pizza stone on the lowest rack for crispiest crust.
• Bake the pizza for 10-15 minutes until the edges are browned and cheese is bubbling.
• Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
• Allow pizza to rest 5 minutes out of the oven before slicing.
