1
This recipe fits in an average pizza pan (14 to 16 size) or a 9x13 baking dish.
-
2
Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl.
-
3
Add in water (very warm) and olive oil, mix until combined.
-
4
Gradually stir in enough remaining flour until you have a soft dough.
-
5
Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about five minutes.
-
6
Cover and let rest on the floured surface for 10 minutes.
-
7
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil your pan and sprinkle with cornmeal.
-
8
If cooking on a pizza stone, use parchment paper sprinkled with cornmeal to make the transition from counter to stone easy.

I highly encourage you to invest in a pizza stone if you make pizza regularly or if you really want to be able to make restaurant-style crust.

Roll dough out until it is 1/2 inch thick around the edges (or until the pan youre using is full) and dips down just slightly in the middle.
-
12
Once dough is spread out, cover with your desired toppings and bake for 812 minutes until crust edges are golden brown.
-
13
Watch crust closely as it can go from golden to overdone quickly, depending on your oven and your toppings.
