# What You'll Need:
→ Dough
01 - 1 lb pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
02 - 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (for dusting)
→ Sauce
03 - 1/2 cup pizza sauce
→ Cheese
04 - 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
05 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
→ Toppings
06 - 8 slices pepperoni
07 - 1/4 cup pitted black olives, sliced
08 - 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
09 - 1/2 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
10 - 2 tbsp green onions, thinly sliced
11 - 1 tbsp corn kernels (optional)
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Preheat oven to 475°F. If using a pizza stone, place it inside to preheat.
02 - Roll out dough on a floured surface into a 10x14 inch rectangle resembling a basketball court. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet or preheated stone.
03 - Spread pizza sauce evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around edges.
04 - Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese uniformly over the sauce.
05 - Use yellow bell pepper strips for outer boundaries and red bell pepper strips for center circle and key to mimic court lines.
06 - Place pepperoni slices as basketballs at court ends. Position sliced olives and corn kernels to mark free throw circles and three-point lines.
07 - Scatter green onions along edges for additional court markings or grass-like effect.
08 - Bake for 12–15 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
09 - Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, then slice into rectangles and serve.
