Preparation
- 1
Make the Pizza Dough
In a large bowl, combine the warm water and instant yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour.

Prepare the Pizza
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese, then layer with pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, and basil.

Bake the Pizza
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.
