   Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Drizzle the olive oil in a 10-by-15-inch baking dish or on a rimmed baking sheet.

2. 2

   Place the balls of dough side by side in the baking dish and pinch the edges together to make one large piece of dough.

3. 3

   Press and stretch the dough so it fills the dish.

4. 4

   (If using a baking sheet, press and stretch the dough into a 10-by-15-inch rectangle.)

5. 5

   Spread the crushed tomatoes over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge.

6. 6

   Top with the red pepper flakes, cheese, sausage and green pepper.

7. 7

   Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the sausage is fully cooked, 25 to 30 minutes.

8. 8

   Let cool slightly, then cut into squares.
