Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1.25 cups Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and granulated sugar.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or your hands, mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 6–8 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat the surface with oil. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm spot for 1–1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then divide it into two equal portions if making two pizzas.
Shape the dough into a circle or rectangle to fit your pizza pan or baking sheet. Add your favorite toppings and bake as directed for your pizza recipe.
