Steps to make Homemade Deep Dish Pizza in a Cast Iron Skillet:
  1. Preparing the dough- - Combine bread flour, cornbread mix, yeast, and seasonings (ground pepper, garlic powder, salt) to a large bowl and mix together evenly. Add water and mix until there is no flour left in the bowl and your dough is the proper texture. Cover and let sit for 8-12 hours (less if you use warm water)
  2. 2nd step for dough- - Uncover the dough which has doubled in size, add your olive oil and mix it into the dough. Drizzle a handful of flour over the top, Mix the flour into the dough and let it rise for another 30 mins.
  3. Knead the dough on a well floured surface, being sure to fold the dough into itself adding flour along the way if it starts to get sticky. Then store the dough in the fridge overnight.
  4. Making the Pizza- - Generously coat a deep skillet with olive oil and add your dough after it has thawed for 10+ minutes. Begin to shape the dough into the pan, eventually creating an inch high crust along the sides. Let it rise while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  5. Preparing the toppings- - Slice up your Italian sausages and microwave them wrapped in paper towel to remove some of the moisture. Cut avocados into slices and add to a bag with lime juice and shake them up.
  6. Assembling the pizza- - First, add layer of cheese then slowly drip your sauce evenly over the cheese (it is harder to spread this way without displacing the cheese). Add your slices of sausage in a circular pattern, then add avocado slices between the sausage.
  7. Bake on 450 degrees farenheight for 20-30 minutes depending on the size/thickness of your pizza. Let it rest for 15 minutes before cutting into and enjoy!
