Ingredients
- 1 packet (7g) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup warm water (105-115°F/40-46°C)
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing
- ½ cup pizza sauce
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Your favorite toppings (pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, etc.)
- Pinch of dried oregano (optional)
- Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- 1. In a large bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy. This indicates the yeast is active.
- 2. Add the olive oil, salt, and 2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- 3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, gradually adding the remaining ½ cup of flour as needed, until the dough is smooth and elastic. It should be slightly tacky but not sticky.
