Instructions
- Combine 1 cup of the flour (125g) with the yeast, sugar, salt and garlic powder/basil if using in a large bowl.
- Add olive oil and warm water and use a wooden spoon to combine thoroughly.
- Add in another 1 cup of flour, and stir. If dough is still too sticky and unmanageable, keep adding flour gradually while stirring until a maximum of another 1/3- 1/2 cup is added. The dough will begin to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
- Coat another large bowl with some olive oil and transfer dough to this greased bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place for 30 minutes or until puffy and expanded to double in size.
- If baking crust right after rising, preheat the oven to 220 C (425) while dough is rising.
- Once dough has risen, coat your hands and a work surface lightly with flour and remove dough from the bowl and knead gently just a few times until dough is deflated and smooth.
- Using hands or a rolling pin (I find it easier to do this directly in the pizza pan) either roll or stretch dough into a 12 inch circular shape.
- Brush the dough circle all over with olive oil (about 1 tbsp). Prick the dough all over with a fork to prevent bubbling in the oven.
- Add desired sauce and toppings and bake in the very hot oven for 13-15 minutes or until toppings are golden brown.
Notes
- Recipe adapted from Sugar Spun Run .
- *Water should be warm but not so hot that it'll kill the yeast. Aim for 40-46 C (105-115 F).. You should be able to keep your hand in it without discomfort but it'll feel warmer than room temperature. I usually boil some water in a kettle, fill up 1/4 of my measuring cup with that then top off the rest with warm temperature water.
