- Lightly grease pizza pans with Olitalia Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
- Carefully transfer 1 dough ball (using a floured bench scraper) to a floured work surface.
- Using flour as needed, roll the dough out into a slightly larger diameter than your pizza pan.
- Transfer to the pizza pan and dock the surface of the dough with a dough docker.
- Spoon ½ cup homemade marinara sauce evenly over the crust and par bake for 3-4 minutes.
- Repeat with the remaining 2 dough balls.
- Continue to assemble pizzas with desired toppings.
- Pizzas can be wrapped and frozen at this point or finished in the oven.
- Bake at 475 degrees F convection for 10-15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Bake pizzas directly on pizza stone (if possible).
