Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

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

Preheat and Prepare Toppings
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to your desired thickness.
