Equipment

  • Large bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 cups purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon yeast
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cups+ 2 tablespoons water lukewarm

Instructions

  • Using a large bowl, add 1 cup of the flour with all the other ingredients and begin mixing well with hands.
  • Add the 2nd cup of flour and continue mixing and kneading until dough forms a nice ball.
  • Once dough ball is formed, leave in bowl and cover bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel for about 15 minutes. Doesn't need to be air tight - just covered to keep warm so yeast can rise.
  • Your dough is now ready to make pizza! With a little olive oil on your hands, press dough out onto a pizza pan (or use a floured rolling pin to roll out) and add your toppings. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 15 minutes.
  • This recipe will yield 1 large size pizza (12 slices) or 2 medium size pizzas (6 slices each).
