Ingredients
- 1½ cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 3 ½ cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14-ounce) jar pizza sauce
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
Optional Toppings
- pepperoni
- mushrooms
- olives
- green peppers
Instructions
- Mix 1½ cups warm water, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon yeast. Let that sit for 5 minutes.
- Add 3 ½ cups flour, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix the dough until smooth, I used my kitchen aid mixer with the dough hook. Alternately you can knead by hand. Let rise for 10 minutes.
- Portion the dough into the size of the pizzas you will be making. I divided mine in half and made two pizzas. Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes and then roll out.
- Spread 1 (14-ounce) jar pizza sauce evenly about an inch from the edge. Top with 2 cups mozzarella cheese and desired toppings.
- Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- I divided my dough in half and made two medium-sized pizzas. Alternatively, you can use all the dough to make one large pizza, or divide it into fourths and make four mini pizzas.
