Time 1h50m

Yield 2 pizzas, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/4 teaspoons dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cups bread flour

Steps:

  • Mix the water with the sugar and yeast. Let stand for 5 minutes until dissolved and the yeast starts to bubble.
  • Add the salt, olive oil and 1 cup of the flour and mix well.
  • Add 2 more cups of flour, dough should be still a little sticky but should be able to form a ball.
  • Turn out onto floured surface and start to knead, adding a little bit of flour as needed, until your dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  • Form a fall, place into an oiled bowl and cover with a cloth napkin. Let dough rise for 45 minutes. Punch down and divide in half.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F If using a pizza stone, be sure to put the stone in the oven while it heats up.
  • If using a baking pizza pan, lightly oil your baking pizza pan. Otherwise, shape pizza on a lightly floured surface. With your hands, press on the dough to spread it out to about 1/2 cm high (very thin). Top pizza with toppings of your choice. Allow to rest for 10-15 minutes. If using a pizza stone, transfer to pizza stone.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the top of the pizza before placing into the oven and bake for 18-22 minutes if using a pizza pan, 8-5 minutes if using a pizza stone, or until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden.

I'm not a big fan of pizza crusts, but this one was really good. It was crispy and flavorful, and it held up well under the weight of the toppings. I'll definitely be making this again.

This pizza crust is a bit time-consuming to make, but it's definitely worth the effort. The results are amazing! The crust is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and it has a wonderful flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this pizza crust turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have any flavor.

This recipe was a disaster! The dough was too sticky to work with, and the crust turned out burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pizza crust was a bit too crispy for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try using a different type of flour next time.
