Ingredients
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing bowl, dough ball and crust
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 cups all- purpose flour, plus more for dusting your work surface
- 1 cup slightly warm water
Method
- In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a dough hook, pour the warm water in and sprinkle with yeast.
- Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- *Do not use hot water or it will kill the yeast and your dough will not rise.
- Add the sugar, oil, and salt into yeast mixture.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour and mix until a dough ball forms.
- You may want to transfer to a floured work surface and knead by hand until a smooth ball comes together.
- Transfer dough to an oiled bowl and brush top with oil.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm area for about an hour.
- The dough should double in size.
- Cut the dough in half.
- Place both pieces on a floured work surface and gently knead.
- You can roll one piece out now into a 12- inch round.
- To cook now, top with your favorite toppings.
- Brush the exposed dough with olive oil and place in a 450 degree oven on a pizza stone (if you have one) for 12 to 15 minutes until the dough is golden brown.
- To freeze the second piece, wrap the dough in plastic and place it in a resealable freezer bag for up to 3 months.
