Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup warm water
- 1 TBSP sugar
- 2 ¼ tsp or one package active yeast
- 1 TBSP honey
- 2 tsp salt
- 3 ½ - 4 cup flour
Instructions
- Combine warm water, sugar, yeast, and honey in the base of a stand mixer and allow to sit for 5 - 10 minutes or until foamy.
- Once foamy, add in salt and mix lightly with the dough hook.
- With mixer on low speed gradually add flour until a soft dough forms. This may require a little more or less flour depending. You have enough flour once you can press your finger lightly into the dough without any sticking to your finger.
- Allow the dough to knead in the mixer for three minutes on low speed.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and shape into a ball. If you find it to be too sticky, flour your hands and work a little extra flour into the dough while you shape it.
- Transfer shaped dough into a lightly greased bowl and allow to rise in a warm space for one hour or until doubled in size.
- Once doubled, roll out or stretch the dough on a floured surface into two 12-inch pizzas or one full-sized cookie sheet. Make sure to leave the edges thicker for a crust, or you can fold over the edge to create a crust.
- Transfer to a pizza stone or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet before adding ingredients so it doesn’t get stuck to the counter.
- Top pizza as desired and bake at 375 degrees for roughly 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Notes
- As written, this recipe will make two 12-inch pizza doughs. The nutrition facts are calculated based on cutting a 12-inch pizza into eight slices.
- Tips
- The less flour used the stickier the dough and the trickier it will be to work with. It also tends to result in a lighter crust, so only add as much flour as you need to be able to work with the dough, but less is more.
- Keep your hands and workstation lightly floured to make it easier to work with the dough.
- If making pizza try stretching the dough instead of using a rolling pin, this just means pulling gently at each side to get the shape you want.
- You can skip the honey, but it enhances the dough flavor a lot. Don’t add extra sugar in place of the honey.
- If using this recipe to make something like pizza loaf it will comfortably make two.
- For a crunchier crust bake at 400 for roughly 15 minutes.
