Ingredients
  • 16 oz. pre-made pizza dough
  • 1 cup mozzarella, shredded
  • 1 cup Italian sausage, cooked and drained
  • 1/2 cup parmesan, shredded not canned
  • 3/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/4 cup sliced olives
  • 12 to 15 slices pepperoni
Instructions
  1. Start by lining the crock in your crockpot with some parchment paper. Cut a sheet big enough that will fit inside, then trim the edges so that it won’t interfere with the lid.

  2. Spray it lightly with cooking spray, then spread the dough out bringing it up around the sides about an inch. This is a deep dish pizza.

  3. Top the dough  with half cheese, then the cooked sausage and any other toppings that you want to put on it.

  4. Next, add the sauce, topped with the rest of the cheeses.

  5. Put the pepperoni on last.

  6. Cover the top of the crockpot with a paper towel then top it with the lid. The paper towel helps absorb the steam so that the pizza gets crispy not soggy.

  7. Cook on high for about two hours. After about an hour and a half check on it make sure the dough isn’t burning. we like ours good and brown and crispy around the edges.

  8. Lift the pizza out of the crockpot using the parchment paper, then let it cool about 5 to 10 minutes.

  9. Slice and serve. The easiest pizza you’ll ever make with virtually no cleanup.
