Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Unroll the pizza crust onto an 18 x 13-inch sheet pan, using the parchment paper included with the crust if available.

Bake the crust for 7 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat, using a potato masher to break it into very fine crumbles.Season the beef with the garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well, then remove from the heat.

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the prebaked crust.

Sprinkle on all but about ½ cup of the seasoned beef.

Evenly sprinkle the fennel seeds over the beef.

Top with the mozzarella cheese.

Finish by sprinkling the reserved ½ cup of ground beef over the cheese.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are lightly browned.
