Start by making pizza dough from scratch.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 2 1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast, 1 1/2 teaspoons of sugar, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of dried basil.

Stir the dry ingredients together until mixed well.

Add 3/4 cup of warm water to the dry ingredients and stir.

Incorporate 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the mixture and stir until combined.

Gradually add about 1 cup of flour, mixing until the dough becomes elastic and pulls away from the bowl.

Once the dough is formed, roll it into a ball and coat it with flour.

Grease a bowl with olive oil and place the dough inside, coating it with oil.

Cover the bowl with a towel and let it rise for about 30 minutes until doubled in size.

After 30 minutes, sprinkle flour on a clean surface and place the dough on it.

Knead the dough a few times, adding more flour if necessary.

Roll out the dough using a rolling pin or a glass to the desired size.

Preheat the cast iron skillet for about 15-20 minutes.

Cook the sausage in the preheated skillet with a little avocado oil until browned, then remove it from the skillet.

Cut the dough in half and place one half in the hot skillet, folding back any overlapping edges.

Smooth out the dough in the skillet and let it cook on medium heat for about 3 minutes to brown the bottom.

Preheat the oven to 425°F while the dough is cooking.
