Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp active dry yeast
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in half of the warmed water and let it sit for 5 minutes, until foamy.

- Prepare the dough according to recipe instructions and spread it evenly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, followed by parmesan, garlic salt, and dried oregano.
