• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 onion, thinly sliced

Directions

Dissolve yeast in water. Stir in sugar, salt and olive oil. Let stand until bubbly, about 5 minutes. Add flour to make a fairly stiff dough. Knead on floured board until smooth, about 5 minutes. Turn dough over in greased bowl; cover. Let rise about 1 hour until doubled. Set quarry tiles, pizza stone, or baking sheet in middle of oven heated to 450 degrees F. Punch dough down. Let rest 10 minutes. Divide into 2 balls. Roll one to 11 inch circle. Sprinkle 1/2 of Mozzarella to within 1/2 inch of rim. Layer all ham. Roll out remaining dough and place on top of other. Press to seal around the edge. Cut 2 inch hold in center. Top with remaining cheese. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Slide onto hot baking surface. Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with onions. Bake 10 minutes until bubbly and browned. Sprinkle with oregano and cut.
