Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 cups Milk
• 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
• 2 cups Pizza sauce
• 3 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup Pepperoni or other toppings (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 13x18-inch sheet pan or two smaller pans with nonstick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula. Mix until a smooth and pourable batter forms.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly onto the prepared sheet pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter into an even layer, making sure it reaches all corners of the pan.

Step 6

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the crust for 10 minutes or until it is just set and lightly golden along the edges.

Step 7

Remove the pan from the oven and spread pizza sauce evenly over the pre-baked crust. Be sure to leave a small border around the edges for a classic pizza look.

Step 8

Sprinkle mozzarella cheese liberally over the sauce, covering the surface. Add pepperoni or any desired toppings on top of the cheese.

Step 9

Place the pan back into the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow the pizza to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
