Yield: One pizza
Ingredients:
- 280 g (2.5 cups) bread flour or all-purpose flour
- 10 g (2 tsp) sugar
- 6 g (1.25 tsp) salt
- 3/4 tsp instant yeast
- 1 cup water
Directions:
- Combined the flours, sugar, and salt in a large bowl
- Heat the water until about 110° F (warm, but not hot enough to hurt you if you put your finger in it)
- Place the yeast into the warm water and wait 2-10 minutes to see if it blooms (bubbles). Once it has bloomed, add it to the dry mixture and combine
- Knead until smooth and shape into a round ball. Cover with a clean dish towel or plastic wrap and let sit for 45 minutes
- Carefully stretch to the thickness and size you would like and enjoy with sauces and toppings of your choice
Note: typically, when I cook these crusts it takes about 8-9 minutes on a pizza stone, but it also can be placed on a metal tray and cooked that way. Do not place the dough directly on the rack because it will fall through and it will break your heart.
