This recipe provides a straightforward way to make delicious pizza dough at home, perfect for any occasion.
In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
Add the olive oil, salt, and half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until combined.
Mix until there are no lumps for a smooth dough.
Gradually add the remaining flour, mixing until the dough forms a ball.
If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Use the heel of your hand to push the dough away and fold it back.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Resting allows the dough to rise slightly and become easier to work with.
Spread the dough onto a greased pizza pan and add your favorite toppings.
Use your hands or a rolling pin to spread the dough evenly.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Check the pizza halfway through baking to ensure even cooking.
Remove from the oven, slice, and serve warm. Enjoy your homemade pizza!
Let the pizza cool for a minute before slicing to make it easier to handle.
