Prep
  1. Spray sheet pan or dough box with pan spray then add frozen dough ball and spray top also; cover and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Remove from refrigerator and let stand at room temperature 15-30 minutes.
  3. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and dust top with flour then gently push in a circular motion to remove most of the air bubbles.
  4. Pick up dough and stretch outwards using thumbs and index fingers; moving around edges in a circular motion until the dough fits onto the tops of your knuckles.
  5. Stretch and turn the dough evenly until it reaches a size of 16-inch diameter.
  6. Transfer to either a pizza screen for Impinger oven, lightly floured pizza peel or parchment-lined full sheet pan for Deck oven.
Assembly

  • For softer, gooey mozzarella use larger pieces of cheese so they do not dry out as quickly.
