Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I preheat my oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If you don’t have parchment, that’s okay; just lightly grease the baking sheet. Then, I roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface, striving for a rectangle about 12×16 inches. The dough should be a little thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges for optimal rolling.
