Ingredients
- 1 packet active dry yeast* (2 ¼ teaspoon)
- 1 cup warm water** 105°F to 110°F
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour plus more for dusting
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for greasing
Instructions
- Whisk together active dry yeast, sugar, and warm water in a small mixing bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes or until a bubbly foam starts to form on the surface. (If you use instant yeast, you don’t need to wait. Proceed to the next step immediately)
- Once the yeast mixture is ready. Add flour, salt, olive oil, and the yeast mixture into a large mixing bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon. Bring the flour in from the sides and blend into the liquid with your hand if needed.
- Keep mixing until the dough is forming.
- Transfer the dough to a flat surface dusted with flour. Knead your dough until it’s smooth and elastic. It could take 5 to 10 minutes.
- Grease another large bowl with olive oil. Then place the dough into the bowl and brush the ball with oil.
- Cover with plastic wrap or kitchen towel. Let it rise at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size.
- When the dough is ready, transfer it to a 12-inch pizza pan.
- Gently roll out the dough by pressing it gently into a 12-inch circle.
- Add your favorite toppings and bake at 450°F degrees for about 15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
- * You can use the same amount of instant yeast for this step. Simply skip the proofing process and add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients mix immediately.
- ** Use warm water between 105°F to 110°F. If you don’t have a thermometer, you can touch the water with your hand. If it’s just slightly warmer than your hand, it’s ok to use.
- This recipe yields one 12-inch pizza with a relatively thick crust.
- Make it Gluten Free: Use the same amount of gluten-free flour to replace all-purpose flour for a gluten-free pizza dough.
