Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.75 cups Water
- 0.5 cups Pizza sauce
- 1 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Your choice of toppings (pepperoni, veggies, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up; otherwise, use a baking sheet.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the olive oil and water to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a small amount of flour; if it’s too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 1–2 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Using a rolling pin or your hands, flatten the dough into a rough circle (about 10–12 inches in diameter). Transfer the rolled-out dough to a sheet of parchment paper for easy handling.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Add your desired toppings, making sure not to overload the pizza to ensure even cooking.
Carefully slide the pizza (with the parchment paper, if using) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2–3 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve immediately!
