Pizza Dough (Basic)

Ingredients

• 3 1/2 cups flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp sugar
• 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Method

1. Mix flour, salt, sugar, and yeast; add water and oil and knead 5–7 minutes until smooth.
2. Cover and rise 60 minutes until puffy.
3. Divide and stretch; top as desired.
4. Bake at 500°F (or as hot as oven goes) 10–14 minutes until browned.

Notes

Bread dough rises faster in a warm spot; slower in a cool kitchen.
