We love making homemade pizza at our house. Ordering out is just too expensive and I have found some great recipes. Most of my family likes a thin crust and I love a deep dish! Making personal pizzas takes a lot of time, so I made a couple of the small ones for the thick crust lovers and a really big one with a think crust for the rest of them.
Overall, I was really pleased with the results and plan to try it again with whole wheat flour. I like my pizza with some meat and lots of veggies. I could only eat one piece because it was so filling. I was very sad when one of the kids snitched my last piece before I could eat it for lunch the next day.
Enjoy!

Turn out on to a flat surface and knead for about 10 minutes. Divide dough into three balls. In three 9" cake pans, put 3 Oz. of oil in each making sure it is spread evenly. Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball to about a 9" circle. Place in cake pans.
Spray the outer edge of dough with cooking spray. Cover with a plate. Place in warm area and allow to rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Sauce:
Combine ingredients and let sit for 1 hour.
For Each Nine Inch Pizza: Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Spoon 1/3 cup sauce on dough and spread to within 1" of edge. Distribute 1 1/2 Oz. shredded mozzarella cheese on sauce. Place toppings of your choice in this order: Pepperoni or Ham Vegetables Meats (cooked ground sausage or beef). Top with 3 Oz. mozzarella cheese. Cook until cheese is bubbling and outer crust is brown.
