Description

A simple and satisfying recipe for homemade pizza dough that brings joy to your dinner table.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose or bread flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of flour with yeast, sugar, and salt. Pour in warm water and olive oil, mixing until it resembles a thick soup.
  2. Stir in another cup of flour. As it becomes clumpy, flour your hands and knead, adding more flour to prevent stickiness.
  3. Grease a clean bowl and place the dough inside. Cover with a warm cloth and let it rise for about 30 minutes.
  4. Once risen, push it down and knead a few more times. Shape the dough on a pizza pan, poking the center with a fork.
  5. Top with your favorite ingredients and bake in a preheated oven at 425°F for about 15 minutes.

Notes

Wrap leftover dough tightly in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
