03 -
100 g of shredded cheddar or provolone

225 g Italian sausage, casings off
05 -
225 g ground beef
06 -
100 g slices of pepperoni
→ Sauce
07 -
350 ml of pizza or marinara sauce
→ Seasonings
08 -
0.5 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

0.5 tsp garlic powder, plus some more to shake on top

# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Toss the sausage and beef in a skillet. Heat on medium and cook 'til they're browned everywhere. Dump out the extra fat, then let the meat cool for a few minutes.
02 -
Crank your oven up to 220°C (425°F).
03 -
Take a pie crust and press it into the pan or skillet, covering the bottom and sides. Spread half your mozzarella cheese right on top of the dough.
04 -
Drop in your cooled meats and sprinkle half the pepperoni slices on top of the cheese layer.
05 -
Pour the sauce all over the meat and pepperoni. Shake your Italian seasoning, garlic, and those spicy pepper flakes (if you like heat) right on top.
06 -
Cover everything with the rest of the mozzarella plus all the shredded cheddar or provolone. Pop the last pepperoni slices across that cheesy top.
07 -
Set the second piece of pie dough over the filling. Pinch the edges closed any way you want. Brush that dough with melted butter and finish by sprinkling a bit of garlic powder.
08 -
Slide your pie into the hot oven. Bake about 20–25 minutes—start keeping an eye on it after 18. Once the top's golden and you see cheese bubbling around the crust, you're done.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Want your crust to stay crispy? A thin cheese layer at the start helps. Let your pie sit 10 minutes before slicing so it'll cut up much prettier.
