Instructions
- Crumble sausage into a large, nonstick skillet set over medium heat; add mushrooms. Cook for 10 minutes or until browned. Stir in sauce, onions, olives and parsley; remove from heat. Cool slightly.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Pulse flour, yeast and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Whisk water with oil, corn syrup and 2 eggs. With the motor running, slowly pour in water mixture. Process for 1 to 2 minutes or until dough forms a ball. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough 15 to 20 times or until smooth and elastic; divide in half.
- Roll one portion to fit an 11 x 17-inch rimmed baking sheet lined with Reynolds® Parchment Paper. Spread sauce mixture over dough; sprinkle with cheese.
- Roll remaining dough into an 8 x 16-inch rectangle. Beat remaining egg with 1 tbsp water; brush over dough and sprinkle evenly with cornmeal. Starting at one corner, cut dough diagonally into 1-inch-thick strips.
- Arrange half the strips, stretching and trimming as needed, diagonally across the filling, leaving a 1-inch gap between strips. Repeat with remaining strips on the opposite angle to create a lattice effect. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden on the bottom and the filling is bubbly. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
