• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.666 cup Water
• 1 cup Tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar

• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 cup White cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Provolone cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Swiss cheese (shredded)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the olive oil and water to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. If needed, add a small amount of water or flour to achieve the right consistency.

Step 4

Lightly flour a clean surface, then roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick in a circular or rectangular shape to fit your baking sheet or pizza stone.

Step 5

Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone and set aside while preparing the sauce.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the tomato sauce, tomato paste, granulated sugar, dried oregano, dried basil, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well to create the pizza sauce.

Step 7

Spread a thin, even layer of the sauce over the prepared crust.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, combine the shredded white cheddar, provolone, and Swiss cheese to create the Provel-style cheese blend.

Step 9

Sprinkle the Provel-style cheese blend evenly over the sauce-covered crust.

Step 10

Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are crispy and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into traditional squares or wedges.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Imo's St. Louis Style Pizza!
