Dough

Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

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

  2. 2

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it along with olive oil to the flour mixture.

  3. 3

    Kneading Dough

    Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

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

Pizza Assembly

  1. 5

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  2. 6

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  3. 7

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the base, then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

  4. 8

    Add Veggie Toppings

    Evenly distribute the diced bell pepper, sliced red onion, mushrooms, black olives, and fresh spinach over the cheese. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on top.

  5. 9

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  6. 10

    Slice and Serve

    Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve hot.
