While the dough rises, prepare the tomato sauce by mixing tomato sauce, garlic powder, and dried oregano in a bowl. Set aside.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to about 12 inches in diameter.

Transfer the rolled-out dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone.

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
