Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for shaping
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon instant yeast
- 2 cups warm water
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Combine all-purpose flour, yeast, and salt in a bowl. Add warm water and mix until a wet, sticky dough forms. Drizzle with olive oil and shape the dough into a ball.
- Cover and allow to rise in a warm place for 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Dump the dough onto a floured surface. Dust with more flour and shape into a rough ball, adding more flour as needed. Divide into 4 equal-sized portions.
- Shape each portion into a tight dough ball. Cover and let them rest for 30 minutes.
- Pre-heat your oven to 450°F with a baking sheet inside.
- Shape each dough ball into a round pizza, until thin and almost see-through.
- Transfer the pizzas to a floured parchment paper and add your desired toppings.
- Add the pizzas on the parchment paper to the preheated baking sheet. Bake for 15-30 minutes, or until the pizzas are golden and crispy.
- Allow to cool slightly, slice, and enjoy!
Notes
- Refrigerate if you’re baking later: If you’re baking your pizzas later on in the day, refrigerate the dough balls and remove from the fridge an hour before baking.
- Stretch with the right technique: Start from the center of the dough ball and stretch outward until thin.
- Oven timings will vary: Timing will depend on your toppings and thickness. Wet toppings on a thicker base will take longer to cook than a thin base with dry or minimal toppings.
