Contadina(R) Quick Pizza Sauce:
1/2 (12 ounce) can CONTADINA(R) Tomato Paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Fleischmann's(R) Easy Pizza Crust:
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 (.25 ounce) envelopes FLEISCHMANN'S(R) Pizza Crust Yeast or RapidRise(R) Yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/3 cups very warm water (120 degrees F to 130 degrees F)
1/3 cup oil
Toppings:
1 (6 ounce) package HORMEL(R) Pepperoni
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste

1
For sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients with 1/2 cup water in a medium bowl; set aside for flavors to develop while making crust. Freeze remaining paste .
2
For crusts: Combine 2 cups of flour with the dry yeast, sugar and salt. Add the water and oil and mix until well blended (about 1 minute). Gradually add enough remaining flour slowly, until a soft, sticky dough ball is formed.
3
Knead for about 4 minutes, on a floured surface, until dough is smooth and elastic. Add more flour, if needed. (If using RapidRise(R) Yeast, let dough rest, covered, for 10 minutes.)
4
Divide dough in half. Pat each half (with floured hands) into a 12-inch greased pizza pan OR roll dough to fit pans.
5
For pizzas: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Top crusts with sauce, pepperoni and cheese.
6
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until crusts are browned and cheese is bubbly. For best results, rotate pizza pans between top and bottom oven racks halfway through baking.
