Pizza Dough and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Baking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until doubled in size.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

  4. 4

    Shape the Pizza

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a 6-inch circle. Place it on a greased baking sheet or pizza stone.

  5. 5

    Add Sauce and Toppings

    Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pizza base. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top and add your choice of topping.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, slice, and enjoy your 6” pizza!
