Create a flavorful and easy pizza dough that will elevate your homemade pizza experience.
Mix the sugar, warm water, and yeast in a measuring cup. Let it sit until frothy.
Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center.
Using a large bowl helps contain the flour while mixing.
Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the well. Stir until a dough forms.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the dough at this stage.
Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic.
Kneading develops the gluten, giving the dough its structure.
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise until doubled in size.
Keep the bowl in a warm, draft-free area for optimal rising.
Punch down the dough, let it rest for 10 minutes, then roll it out to your desired thickness.
Resting the dough makes it easier to roll out evenly.
Top the rolled-out dough with your favorite toppings and bake at 450°F until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Preheating the oven ensures a crispy crust.
