Instructions
For the Dough
Put the flour, salt, yeast and sugar in a food processor with a metal blade attachment and pulse to combine. Add 1 cup warm water, then process until a ball forms, about 30 seconds (if a ball does not form, add a bit more flour). Process for another 30 seconds, then roll into a tight ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl. Proof in a warm spot until the dough doubles in size, about 2 hours.
For the Pizza
Position an oven rack in the bottom of the oven and preheat to 500 F.
Pour the 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, rectangle metal cake pan (roughly 10 x 14inches). Put the dough in the pan and gently stretch it out to fit so the dough reaches the corners.
Drizzle half of the garlic oil sauce on top. Layer the broccoli and spinach on the dough. Then lay the cheese cubes and feta all over, especially around the perimeter up to the edge of the pan. Drizzle the rest of the garlic oil sauce on top and scatter with sliced red fresnos.
Bake until bubbly and golden and a crispy cheese crust has formed, 10 to 15 minutes. Use spatula to loosen up the edges and remove the pizza from the metal pan and place on a cutting board. Slice into squares and serve with garnishes
