Directions

  1. 1In a measuring cup, mix 1 and 1/3 cup of warm water, 2 teaspoons of active yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir and set aside for 10 minutes until the yeast blooms.
  2. 2In a stand mixer bowl, add 3 cups of bread flour and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. 3After 10 minutes, add the yeast mixture to the flour and salt in the mixer bowl.
  4. 4Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the mixture.
  5. 5Using a dough hook, mix on the lowest setting until it forms a ball and comes away from the sides (about 2-3 minutes).
  6. 6Spray or drizzle oil in the bowl. Place the dough ball in the oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a towel, and let rise on the counter for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
  7. 7Punch down the dough to release air and gather it to the center of the bowl.
  8. 8Cut the dough in half (or thirds for thinner crust) and tuck the edges under to create smooth balls.
  9. 9Place the dough balls on an ungreased cookie sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use.
