Pizza Dough

Ingredients
 

  • 1 3/4 c. warm water
  • 1 envelope of active dry yeast
  • 2 tsp. sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 4 c. bread flour; also a little extra
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • Nonstick spray

Instructions

  • In small bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Allow yeast to dissolve and let it bloom (get frothy).
  • In standing mixer (with paddle attachment) stir together flour and salt.
  • Slowly add in water/yeast mixture. As the dough starts to form, switch to dough hook attachment.
  • Knead the dough for about 2-4 minutes in the mixer, adding a little more flour if needed (if it is still sticking too much to the bowl).
  • Remove the dough to a floured work board. Make sure your hands are floured and continue to knead the dough for another 2 minutes or so.
  • Form dough into a round ball and transfer to a bowl that has been fully covered in nonstick spray.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 1.5-2 hours in a warm area of your kitchen. It should double in size.
  • When ready use rolling pin to form into desired shape of pizza stone or baking sheet.
  • Add toppings and Bake at 500 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until crust is golden.
