This pizza crust recipe was given to me by a friend. It is quick, easy, and delicious!
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
Dissolve yeast in warm water in a small bowl. Let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes.
Combine bread flour, olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast mixture in a mixing bowl; stir well to combine. Beat until a stiff dough has formed. Cover the bowl; let rise at room temperature until dough doubles in volume, about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface. Form dough into a round and roll out into a thin crust. Cover with your favorite sauce and toppings.
Bake pizza in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
