Pizza Dough
Toppings
Method
Prepare the Dough
Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Mix the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Let the Dough Rise
Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Assemble the Pizza
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
Roll Out the Dough
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a 12-inch circle.
Add BBQ Sauce
Spread BBQ sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Bake the Pizza
Transfer the pizza to the oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Garnish and Serve
Remove the pizza from the oven, sprinkle with chopped cilantro if desired, slice, and serve hot.
