Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the active dry yeast with half of the warm water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy. In a larger bowl, whisk together the unsalted butter, sugar, kosher salt, and the remaining warm water. Stir in the egg yolk and the yeast mixture before gradually incorporating the all-purpose flour until a soft dough forms.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish with melted butter and spread the dough evenly across the bottom, pressing gently to fit. Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your toppings, including shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Uncover the dough and brush the top with melted butter. Sprinkle generously with mozzarella cheese, followed by Parmesan, garlic salt, and dried oregano. Bake for 28-31 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes
Ensure warm water is at the right temperature to activate yeast properly. Brush with melted butter before baking for richness.
