Ingredients: 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast. 1 tsp granulated sugar. 1 1/2 cups warm water. 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 2 tbsp olive oil. 2 tsp salt.
Instructions: In a small bowl, combine active dry yeast, sugar, and warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour mixture. Stir until it forms a dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1-2 hours until doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 475F 245C with a pizza stone inside if you have one. Divide the dough into two portions and roll them out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough onto parchment paper and add your favorite pizza toppings. Slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the hot pizza stone or a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the toppings are bubbly and cooked to your liking. Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, slice, and enjoy!
