Prepare the pizza dough and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).

Slice the onions and sauté them in olive oil over medium heat until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Add oregano, black pepper, and salt to the onions, stirring to combine.

Roll out half of the pizza dough on a floured surface to fit your pizza pan.

Transfer the rolled dough to the pan, allowing it to hang over the edges.

Layer mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, followed by the sautéed onions and other toppings like olives and bell pepper.

Roll out the second half of the dough and place it on top of the filling, sealing the edges by pinching them together.

Brush the top with olive oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Serve warm and enjoy.
