Makes 1 12” pizza
For the Garlicky Cheese Sauce:
In a small saucepan over low heat, heat milk with butter until butter melts. Add cream cheese and garlic powder, whisking gently as the cream cheese melts. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
When ready to assemble, roll out dough into desired size. Spread garlicky cheese sauce over pizza, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella. Lay slices of provolone over the mozzarella. Then sprinkle the green and yellow peppers, tomato, onion, and bacon. Finally, sprinkle shredded cheddar.
Bake in your Cru oven. For a a pub style pizza, bake around 650°F for about 4 minutes rotating as needed to ensure even baking. Whatever your temperature always watch your pizza closely.
If your crust is cooked but you want your toppings to brown more, slide the peel underneath your pizza and lift the entire pizza closer to the oven ceiling. As the intense heat rises in the oven, it gathers in the oven's roof. This method takes advantage of that radiant heat, which further caramelizes your cheese and toppings.
