Instructions
Heat oven to 350F. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink.

In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, cornmeal and Parmesan cheese.
Cut in butter, using pastry blender, until crumbly.
Add boiling water; stir vigorously until dough forms. Spray 10-inch ovenproof skillet with cooking spray. Press dough on bottom and up side of skillet. Arrange cheese slices over crust; spread with 1/3 cup of the pizza sauce. Top with sausage and onion mixture. Arrange two-thirds of the pepperoni over onion mixture.
Spread remaining 1/3 cup pizza sauce over pepperoni; top with shredded mozzarella cheese and remaining pepperoni.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
Cut into 8 wedges; serve with additional pizza sauce, heated, if desired.
