Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 packet instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup warm water (about 110°F or 43°C)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 cup pizza sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup toppings (pepperoni, sliced vegetables, etc.)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a rough dough forms.

Step 4

Lightly flour a clean surface and knead the dough for about 3-5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Divide the dough into two portions (if you want individual pizzas) or keep it whole for one large pizza.

Step 6

Roll out the dough using a rolling pin or your hands until it forms a thin circle or rectangle, depending on your preference.

Step 7

Carefully remove the hot pizza stone or baking sheet from the oven and place your rolled-out dough on it.

Step 8

Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then add your desired toppings.

Step 10

Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.

Step 11

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
