Cooking Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Let dough sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, but 45 minutes is better.
- Remove casings from sausage and brown over medium-low heat. Break apart with a wooden spatula to get small crumbles. Drain and set aside.
- Make the White Sauce - you can find the recipe for this in the post titled, Wild Palms Pizza.
- Lightly coat a quarter sheet pan with olive oil and set near your assembly station.
- On a floured surface, roll the dough out to roughly 9" x 13" and lay it in the sheet pan.
- Spread an even, thin layer of the white sauce and sprinkle a layer of mozzarella.
- Then sausage and more cheese. Onions and more cheese (alternating between the regular mozzarella and the smoked mozzarella).
- Keep layering until the sausage is gone and finish with a layer of cheese.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is browned and bubbly.
Notes
Drizzling the pizza with honey before serving adds a delightful sweetness that complements the savory flavors.
