In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Pour in the warm water and olive oil. Mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until the batter is smooth and slightly runny. The consistency should resemble thick pancake batter.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest in a warm spot for 20-30 minutes to allow it to rise slightly.
While the dough is resting, preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F) and grease a 12-inch oven-safe skillet or round baking pan generously with olive oil.
After the dough has rested, pour it into the prepared skillet or pan, spreading it out evenly with a spoon or spatula.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce and add your desired toppings, such as pepperoni slices. Finish with a sprinkle of dried oregano for added flavor.
Place the skillet or pan into the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown, the cheese is melted, and the edges are crispy.
Carefully remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges or squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
