# What You'll Need:
→ Dry Ingredients
01 - 4 cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
02 - 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
03 - 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
04 - 1 teaspoon sugar
→ Wet Ingredients
05 - 1 1/2 cups warm water (approximately 110°F)
06 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
# How to Make It:
01 - Combine warm water, sugar, and yeast in a large mixing bowl. Stir gently and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy.
02 - Add olive oil, bread flour, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
03 - Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if sticky.
04 - Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 to 2 hours until doubled in size.
05 - Punch down the dough and divide into two equal portions. Shape each into a ball and cover, allowing them to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
06 - On a floured surface, roll each dough ball out to desired thickness.
07 - Transfer dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone, add toppings as desired, and bake at 475°F for 12 to 15 minutes until crust is golden and crisp.
