Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 150 milliliters Warm water (about 110°F/43°C)
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal (for dusting)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the olive oil and warm water. Stir with a wooden spoon or your hand until the dough starts to come together.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 7–10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Form the dough into a ball and place it back into the mixing bowl. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour. It should double in size.
Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C). Place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out very thinly to your desired size (about a 12-inch circle).
Lightly dust a piece of parchment paper with cornmeal. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Add your desired toppings to the dough while it's on the parchment paper.
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.
Bake for 6–8 minutes, or until the crust is crispy and golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2–3 minutes before slicing and serving.
