Instructions

• Place your pizza stone in your oven on the middle rack.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees f.
• In a large bowl, combine one cup of all-purpose flour, Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Yeast, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Whisk until combined.
• Add very warm water, and oil to dry mixture. Using a wooden spoon, combine mixture.
• Slowly add in remaining flour. For this recipe, I used 2 + 1/4 cups of flour for the perfect consistency.
• Dough will start to form a ball and will be slightly sticky.
• Remove dough from the bowl.
• Knead on a floured surface. If dough is too sticky sprinkle additional flour on it and work into the dough.
• Allow Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Yeast dough to rest for 10 minutes.
• Brown hamburger and sausage in a small skillet. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
• Once it has rested, sprinkle 3 tbsps of cornmeal on the flip side of a large baking sheet.
• Stretch and form dough ball into a 12 inch pizza crust using a rolling pin.
• Place pizza crust on the cornmeal floured back side of the baking sheet.
• Using a spoon, swirl sauce on pizza crust leaving about 1 1/2″ of outer crust bare.
• Sprinkle on cheese.
• Sprinkle on all 4 meat toppings.
• Open oven and using oven mitts, pull out rack with the pizza stone on it.
• Carefully slide pizza crust from the baking sheet onto the pizza stone.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes total. Crust will be golden brown.
• Remove pizza stone from oven and place on top of the stove.
• Allow pizza to cool before slicing.
