Serves:

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water (110°F)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
Gradually add in the warm water and olive oil, stirring well until the dough comes together.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).
Punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal portions. Roll out each portion into a 12-inch circle.
Transfer the dough to a lightly greased baking sheet or pizza stone.
Add your desired toppings to the dough, such as tomato sauce, cheese, and your favorite vegetables or meats.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then slice and serve.
