Simple Homemade Pizza Dough
Ingredients
  • 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
  • 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components, including food items and cooking equipment.
2
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius), taking care to lightly coat a pizza pan with cooking spray.
3
Combine warm water in a container; add yeast and sugar to the mixture, stirring until they form a harmonious blend. Allow this combination to mature for approximately 10 minutes.
4
Add flour, oil, and salt to the yeast mixture; blend until a smooth consistency is achieved. You can accomplish this by hand or utilize a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment to simplify the process.
5
Allow the mixture to relax for 5 minutes.
6
Transfer the dough onto a lightly dusted surface, shaping it into a circular form with a diameter of 12 inches.
7
Carefully place the dough onto the prepared pizza pan.
8
Apply your preferred sauce and toppings to the crust, taking care not to overdo it.
9
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake until it reaches a golden brown hue, typically requiring 15 to 20 minutes.
10
Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and permit it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
