Combine all Dough ingredients in a bowl, knead until smooth, and let rise in a greased 9x13 inch metal pan for 90 minutes until doubled.
Spread half the cheese to the very edges of the pan, then top with crushed tomatoes and uncooked crumbled sausage.
Bake at 500°F (260°C) for 15-18 minutes until the edges are dark brown and crispy.
Remove from oven, scatter the shaved fennel over the top, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
