Pizza Dough

Method

Prepare the Dough

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy.

  2. 2

    Make the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let it Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Sauce

  1. 5

    Mix the Sauce Ingredients

    In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Mix well until smooth.

Assemble the Pizza

  1. 6

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) while the dough is rising.

  2. 7

    Roll Out the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness (about 12 inches in diameter).

  3. 8

    Add Sauce and Toppings

    Spread the special sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by chopped bacon and sliced tomatoes.

Bake the Pizza

  1. 9

    Bake

    Place the assembled pizza on a baking sheet or pizza stone and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cheese is bubbly.

  2. 10

    Add Lettuce

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Top with shredded lettuce before slicing.
