Aunt Alta'S Crazy Crust Pizza - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Crust Batter
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon oregano or 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
    1/8 teaspoon black pepper
    2 large eggs, lightly beaten
    2/3 cup skim milk
    Sauce (make extra if you prefer more sauce)
    1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce (plain)
    2 teaspoons oregano
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, to taste
    1/8 teaspoon dreid red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
    Topping
    1 lb ground Italian sausage, cooked and drained or 1 cup pepperoni, thinly sliced
    1/4 cup onion, chopped (optional)
    1/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped (optional)
    1 (4 ounce) can mushrooms, sliced, drained (optional)
    2 -3 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced (optional)
    1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (4 ounces in weight)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 425\u00b0F.
    Have ready a 12-14\" round pizza pan with a rim (or use a 10x15\" jelly roll pan), lightly greased with olive oil.
    Combine flour, salt, oregano, pepper, eggs, and mikl until smooth.
    Pour crust batter into the pan, tilting the pan to coat evenly; you want the entire bottom covered and it will appear to be very very low and thin.
    Sprinkle cooked sausage (or pepperoni slices) all over the batter, then do the same with the garlic,onions,green peppers, and mushrooms if using, but DO NOT ADD SAUCE OR CHEESE YET.
    Bake on a low rack in preheated 425 F oven for 25-30 minutes until deep golden brown (to give it a crispy crust).
    Meanwhile mix together the sauce ingredients.
    When pizza is ready, drizzle the sauce over the pizza as evenly as you can and sprinkle cheese over the top, bearing in mind that if you add extra sauce/cheese the pizza will not be as crispy.
    Bake another 10-15 minutes or until sauce is heated through and cheese has melted.
    Cut into squares and serve, this is going to have a very thin crust and depending on how many toppings you added, might be a bit floppy so have a fork handy (my aunt always ate pizza with a fork).
