  • Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes
  • Yield: Dough for 3 pizzas 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon instant/fast-rise yeast
  • 1 3/4 cups very warm water, about 120 degrees
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • Additional olive oil for brushing pan and crust

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the bread flour, salt, and yeast.
  2. Add the water and olive oil, and knead with the dough hook attachment until dough is smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  3. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rest for 1 hour.
  4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  5. Divide dough into 3 balls. Freeze extra balls of dough for later use.
  6. Roll or toss and stretch dough into a very thin 14-inch circle. (If dough keeps shrinking back instead of rolling out thin, cover and let it rest for 10 or 15 minutes and then roll it again. This allows the gluten to relax.)
  7. Brush pan with olive oil. Arrange dough on pan and lightly brush crust with additional olive oil. Cover with your favorite toppings.
  8. Bake 20-25 minutes or until crust is golden.
