Pizza is a worldwide favorite, and this Extra-Easy Pizza recipe is a simplified version of the classic. The recipe uses Bisquick baking mix instead of a homemade dough, which cuts down the preparation time significantly. The dough is pliable, easy to work with, and creates a crispy crust.

Experience a delicious homemade pizza without the hassle and expense of ordering take-out!

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
2.	In a mixing bowl, combine Bisquick baking mix and very hot water. Stir with a fork until the dough forms.
3.	Place the dough on a greased pizza pan, using your fingers to stretch and press the dough evenly into the pan.
4.	Spoon pizza sauce onto the dough, spreading it out evenly.
5.	Top the sauce with sliced pepperoni, if desired.
6.	Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza.
7.	Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
