Add the sourdough starter, water, olive oil, salt, and sugar to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Carefully add the bread flour and instant yeast to the pan, ensuring the yeast does not come into direct contact with the salt.
Set the bread machine to the 'Dough' cycle and start the machine. Allow the machine to knead and rest the dough as per its programmed cycle, typically around 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Once the dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
Divide the dough into two equal portions if making two pizzas, or leave it whole for one large pizza.
Shape the dough into a ball, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rest for 20 minutes to allow it to relax.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and, if using, place a pizza stone inside to heat up.
Roll out the dough to your desired thickness and shape on a lightly floured surface.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
Add your favorite pizza toppings and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute or two, then slice and enjoy!
