Description

Thick and airy focaccia pizza loaded with mozzarella, fontina, pepperoni, hot italian sausage, pancetta, colorful bell peppers, olives, and a perfectly golden crust. A hearty supreme style bake that combines fluffy bread texture with bold pizza flavor.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 2/3 cups bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for bowl and pan
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, freshly grated
  • 1 cup fontina cheese, grated
  • 4 ounces hot italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 4 ounces pancetta, diced and cooked
  • 24 slices pepperoni
  • 1/3 cup green bell pepper, diced
  • 1/3 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/3 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup banana peppers, sliced
  • 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine honey and warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Stir in bread flour, kosher salt, and olive oil until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead lightly until smooth, then place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover and let rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Generously oil a 9 by 13 inch baking pan.
  5. Press the risen dough evenly into the prepared pan and let rest 15 minutes.
  6. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
  7. Sprinkle mozzarella and fontina evenly over the sauce.
  8. Top with cooked sausage, cooked pancetta, pepperoni slices, diced green and red bell peppers, red onion, banana peppers, and black olives.
  9. Sprinkle parmesan cheese and italian seasoning over the top.
  10. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
  11. Let rest a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Make sure sausage and pancetta are fully cooked before adding to the pizza.
  • Allow the dough to fully double in size for a light and airy texture.
  • Do not overload with sauce to prevent a soggy crust.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven to maintain crispness.
