Ingredients
- 2 – 2 1/4 cups bread flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet of Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Instant Yeast
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup tomato sauce
- 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
- 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup caramelized onions (see notes if you are unsure how to make caramelized onions!)*
- 5 slices cooked thick cut bacon, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
Instructions
- In a large bowl mix together 2 cups of bread flour, sugar, salt, and Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Instant Yeast.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm water. Using your hands, mix everything together until it forms a dough. The dough will be sticky, but don’t worry, it will come together once you knead it!
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead the dough for 5 minutes or until the texture of the dough starts to smooth out. If the dough feels too sticky, add remaining ¼ cup flour in a tablespoon at a time until the dough is dry enough to work with. Form the dough into a ball and place into a greased bowl. Cover loosely with a dish cloth and put in a warm place to rise for just ten minutes.
- After ten minutes, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface. We like to do this on a piece of parchment paper for easy clean up and transport. Stretch out dough into a 12 inch round and place on pizza stone or baking sheet. Top with sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings you desire. Baked at 500° F for 10 minutes! Allow to cool before slicing and eating!

Notes
- To caramelize your onions, heat 2 Tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add 2 yellow onions sliced into medium size strips (about 1/8 inch thick) and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown. If your onions start to get too dry, you can add in a little bit of water to deglaze the pan! The onions are done when they are soft and golden brown in color. Salt too taste!
