Ingredients

Method

  1. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. In a separate bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add olive oil and mix. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, kneading until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let it rise in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours.
  2. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C) with a pizza stone or baking sheet inside.
  3. While dough ferments, cook sausage links in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
  4. Slice avocado and set aside. Once dough has fermented, punch it down and roll it out into a pizza shape. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce (optional) or olive oil, then add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  5. Top with cooked sausage slices and avocado. Sprinkle oregano and garlic powder. Bake for 10-12 minutes until crust is golden and bubbly.
  6. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then slice and serve.
