📝 Preparation Steps
1
Make the Dough
2
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix the flour, salt, and yeast together until combined.
3
Add water and knead on medium/low speed until the dough comes together to form a ball, about ⏱️ 8-10 minutes.
4
Transfer the dough to a large, oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about ⏱️ 2 hours.
5
Spread 2 tablespoons of oil into a Detroit-style pizza pan and transfer the dough into it.
6
Stretch the dough to the edges of the pan, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for at least ⏱️ 30 minutes to let the gluten relax.
7
While the dough is relaxing, preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C).
8
Stretch the dough a bit beyond the edges of the pan so that it doesn’t shrink back from the corners,

Top the Pizza
10
First sprinkle on the cheese all the way to the edges of the pan, next dollop the sauce on top in spoonfuls before lastly laying pepperoni all over. (note: in the video above I gave the wrong order to add toppings. Please follow this written recipe)
11
Bake for about ⏱️ 15 minutes, until the edges are very dark (almost black) and caramelized and any exposed cheese is starting to brown.
12
Carefully loosen the pizza from the edges of the pan, transfer to a cutting board and serve.
13
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F (180°C) oven for ⏱️ 10 minutes.
