Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour divided
- 1 ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 ¾ cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine 2 cups of flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well and add the warm water and olive oil.
- Slowly stir in the remaining 2 cups of flour until the dough becomes firm and not sticky.
- Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap, then a towel letting it rise for 20 minutes.
- Punch down the dough and divide into two equal parts, divide each half into six pieces for a total of 12.
- Shape each piece into a smooth ball, cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 500°F. On a floured surface roll each ball into a 7 inch circle.
- Place 4 circles onto a cooling rack or a baking tray and bake for 5 minutes. The dough will puff up creating a pocket in the middle and brown on the edges.
