Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and granulated sugar.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Make sure the water is warm (around 110°F or 43°C) to activate the yeast properly.
Stir the mixture using a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 3-5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
If the dough feels sticky, sprinkle a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue kneading.
Once the dough is ready, let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Cover it loosely with a kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.
After resting, divide the dough into 2 portions for smaller pizzas or keep it whole for one large pizza.
Your dough is now ready to be rolled out, topped with your favorite ingredients, and baked in a preheated oven at 475°F (245°C) for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and crisp.
