Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water (approximately 110°F or 45°C) with the granulated sugar. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the water-sugar mixture and let it sit for 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add olive oil, salt, and 2 cups of all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture. Stir with a spatula or spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
Gradually add the remaining 0.5 cup of flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, kneading between additions until the dough is soft and slightly sticky but not too wet.
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for 4-5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Lightly grease a large bowl with a touch of olive oil or non-stick cooking spray. Place the dough ball in the bowl, turning it once to coat with the oil.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for 15-20 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven as it heats up.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into your desired pizza size and thickness.
Transfer the dough to a prepared pizza pan or parchment paper (if using a stone). Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven, let cool for 2-3 minutes, slice, and serve your delicious Pizza Hut-style pizza!
