In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast has been activated.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the activated yeast mixture.
Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough starts to come together.
Turn the dough out onto a clean surface lightly dusted with flour. Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a clean, lightly floured bowl. Cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release any air bubbles.
Roll out the dough to your desired thickness on a floured surface. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
Pre-bake the crust in a preheated oven at 475°F (245°C) for 5 minutes to give it a head start before adding toppings.
Remove the crust from the oven, add your favorite pizza sauce and toppings, and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the toppings are cooked to your liking.
Allow the pizza to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your fat-free pizza!
