Calories: 91kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon water heated to 110 to 115 degrees
- 2 1/4 tsps active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Heat water to between 110 and 115 degrees. (You will use the full 1 cup and 1 tablespoon all at once.)
- Sprinkle 2 1/4 tsps active dry yeast over the water. Then sprinkle 1 tsp of sugar over the yeast. Let it sit until the water has become frothy. If it doesn't froth as pictured above, dump your water and start again.
- In the bowl of a food processor add three cups all purpose flour and salt. Pulse for a few seconds to evenly distribute the salt.
- With the food processor running, add the oil. Then add the yeast water combination with the food processor still running until a dough ball forms.
- Spray a large bowl with cooking spray. Put the dough ball in and cover with plastic wrap. Allow it to double in size, about an hour to an hour and a half.
- Pull the dough apart to create two dough balls for two pizza crusts.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Roll out the pizza dough and place on a pizza stone or pizza baking sheet, add pizza sauce, your favorite toppings, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
