Crust Preparation

Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and 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 pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil.

Knead the Dough
Mix the ingredients until a dough forms. Transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Assembling the Pizza

Preheat the Oven

Roll Out the Dough
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out to fit your pizza stone or baking sheet.

Add Sauce and Cheese
Spread pizza sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
