Thin Crust Pizza Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Dough

   In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.

2. 2

   Knead the Dough

   Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

3. 3

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) while the dough rises.

4. 4

   Roll Out the Dough

   Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide it into two equal portions for two pizzas. Roll each portion out on a floured surface to your desired thinness.

5. 5

   Add Toppings

   Transfer the rolled dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet. Add your favorite toppings such as tomato sauce, cheese, vegetables, and meats.

6. 6

   Bake the Pizza

   Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy. Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
