Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix together salt, caraway seeds, oregano, garlic salt, ground black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
Step 3
Mix ground beef and eggs in a mixing bowl until thoroughly incorporated. Add Parmesan cheese and seasoning mixture to beef; combine. Press ground beef mixture into a 12x17-inch pan, spread out evenly.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until meat is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain grease.
Step 5
Sprinkle 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese over baked meat, followed by tomato sauce in an even layer. Sprinkle another 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese over the sauce and top with slices of pepperoni. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese over pizza.
Step 6
Broil until cheese is melted, bubbling, and lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
Step 7
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler.
