2. 2

   Preheat oven to 425 F degrees and position one rack to the bottom position and the other to the upper third.

   --- Procedure ---

5. 5

   Scrape melted cheese into the bowl of a food processor, add the egg and process until combined. Add the dry ingredients and process again until thoroughly combined. If the dough is very warm and sticky, let it cool to room temperature before rolling. The dough is very sticky by nature, but oiling your hands makes it manageable.

6. 6

   Hand Method: Place a piece of parchment paper on a sheet pan and with oiled hands, pat the dough evenly into place. I prefer to oil my hands. The dough will cover most of the sheet pan with a 1 - 1 1/2 inch border all around. Dock (poke holes all over) with a fork.

7. 7

   Rolling Pin: Alternately, roll the dough out between two sheets of parchment paper. This is my preferred way. Remove the top piece of parchment and transfer the dough and parchment to the baking sheet. Prick the dough all over with a fork.

   --- Bake ---

9. 9

   Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and rub the crust with a piece of garlic. Spread the tomato sauce onto the pizza and top evenly with cheese. Add the pepperoni. Bake until the cheese has melted.
