📝 Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1/2 Tbsp instant yeast
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour ((stir, spoon & level))

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast with sugar in warm water. Let sit until bubbly (5 min.)
  2. 2Add extra virgin olive oil, salt & flour to the yeast mixture. Mix with a spoon giving it about 50 good stirs until it balls up & does not stick to the bowl, sprinkling dough with extra flour as necessary. Take dough out of bowl. Spray the inside with pan-coating & put dough back inside the bowl. Cover with a towel & let the dough rise for 30 minutes.
  3. 3Once dough has rested, & risen about double the size, roll out onto prepared pizza tray (grease tray with spray.) Cover with towel & let rest again for 10-15 minutes. The longer you let it rest the softer it will be.
  4. 4Preheat oven to 425˚F. Bake crust for 5 minutes to create a dry, semi-cooked layer over the top.
  5. 5Top pizza with desired sauce, cheese & toppings.
  6. 6Return pizza to oven for an additional 11-12 minutes or until crust is browned & cheese bubbles.
