Ingredients

Method

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, and salt. Add warm water and olive oil, then mix until a dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
  2. In a skillet, cook sliced onions over medium heat until caramelized, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Shape the dough into a rectangle and place in a greased baking dish. Spread tomato sauce over the dough.
  4. Top with caramelized onions, ham, bell peppers, mozzarella, hard-boiled eggs, and olives.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
