1 pizza dough recipe (see note)
1/2 cup pizza sauce (120 grams)

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Roll out the pizza dough to make a 12-inch crust. Spread the sauce over the dough.

Top with 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Add the cooked meat and pepperoni. Then top with the remaining cheese.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the edges of your pizza are golden and the cheese is well melted. (See note 2.)

My homemade pizza dough is enough to make two 12 inch pizzas. For this recipe you will need half that amount.
Please note that this pizza cooks best on a preheated pizza stone. If you don't have one available, consider pre-cooking your rolled out dough for five minutes before adding the sauce and toppings and continuing with baking.
You will need to cook the bacon before adding it to the unbaked pizza. I like to make bacon in the air fryer because it is so quick and mess free, but oven cooked bacon is a great idea too.
