Ingredients

• 1.25 cups Warm water
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and granulated sugar. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, and dried thyme.

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the frothy yeast mixture and olive oil.

Step 4

Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until the dough starts to come together.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat it in oil. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.

Step 7

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two equal portions if making two pizzas.

Step 8

Roll out or shape the dough to fit your desired pizza pan or stone, and it’s ready to be topped with your favorite ingredients.
