Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 220 grams All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
- 120 milliliters Water (lukewarm)
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal or flour (for dusting)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and instant yeast.
In a separate small bowl, mix the lukewarm water, olive oil, and honey until the honey dissolves.
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula until a rough dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If it's too sticky, add a small amount of flour, 1 teaspoon at a time.
Place the dough in a clean, lightly greased bowl. Cover it with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until it has slightly doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a thin circle or rectangle, about 12 inches wide, depending on your desired pizza shape.
Sprinkle cornmeal or flour onto a parchment paper sheet to prevent sticking. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the parchment paper.
Optional: Lightly prick the surface of the dough all over with a fork to prevent air bubbles during baking.
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the dough onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake the crust for 4-5 minutes to par-bake it. Remove from the oven and add your desired low-fat toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 7-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your healthier thin-crust pizza!
