Let's face it, pizza's all about that crispy, golden, chewy crust to carry our favorite toppings. The oven easily takes care of that, baking the dough just how you like it.
1Combine the oil and cornmeal in a small bowl. Pour into the roasting pan and tilt to evenly coat.
2Place a sheet of parchment paper on the countertop. Lightly grease the bottom edge and place a second sheet, slightly overlapping on top. Flour generously, then place the dough on the parchment. Flour the dough and using a floured rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle, large enough to fit the roasting pan. Transfer to the roasting pan, pressing the dough to the edges of the pan.
Tip: Ensure the base of the dough is well-floured so it doesn’t stick to the parchment paper.
3Insert the wire rack into position 7. Place the pan in the oven. Set the oven to Proof, Convection, 100°F, for 30 minutes and press Start to proof.
4The dough should feel soft to the touch and have risen slightly. If not, proof it longer.
5Set the oven to Pizza, Super Convection, 350°F, for 22 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
6Combine the cheeses in a bowl and set aside. Season the marinara sauce with salt and oregano and mix to combine. Spread the sauce over the dough. Scatter the cheeses evenly over the pizza.
7Once preheated, place the pan in the oven and cook for 22 minutes.
8The cheese should be melted and golden brown. To test if the dough is cooked, insert a kitchen thermometer into the center of the pizza until it gently touches the dough. Pizza is ready when it reads a minimum of 190°F. If not, cook it a little longer.
Tip: Ensure the thermometer doesn’t touch the pan or you’ll get an inaccurate result.
9Transfer the pizza to a cutting board. Slice and serve.
