Ingredients:
Pizza Dough (makes 2 lbs)
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 packets active dry yeast
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups 00 flour (substitute ap flour)

Toppings
1/4 lb thinly sliced soppressata

1/2 ball fresh mozzarella (torn)

Spicy honey
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes

Method:
Preheat oven to 500F degrees.
Dough:
Add 1 1/2 cups warm water to a large bowl. Sprinkle with yeast and let sit for at least 5 minutes until foamy.
Meanwhile, whisk together sugar, oil, and salt. Add this mixture to the yeast mixture. Using a wooden spoon add in flour 1 cup at a time until dough becomes sticky. Transfer dough to an oiled bowl. Allow to rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size. If you have a Viking Warming Drawer, allow to rise for only 30 minutes.
Pizza Sauce:
Place all ingredients into a blender. Blend until smooth. Set aside until ready to use.
Spicy honey:
In a small saut¿ pan, add honey. Once bubbling, add red pepper flakes. Season with salt, remove from heat and set aside.
The Build:
Coat sheet tray with 2 tablespoons of oil to prevent sticking. Press dough into prepared pan. Spread sauce along dough leaving a 1 inch border of crust. Add dollops of ricotta, mozzarella, and soppressata evenly over dough. Bake until golden brown about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and drizzle with spicy honey.
