2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast If doubling the recipe don't double the water amount.
1/2 tsp brown sugar
1 1/2 c very warm water
1 tsp salt
2 TBSP olive oil
3 1/3 C all purpose flour.
In a large bowl, dissove the yeast and brown sugar in water. Let sit for 10 minutes
Stir the salt and oil into the yeast mixture. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of flour
Turn dough out onto a clean, well floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Place the dough into a well oiled bowl, cover with a cloth. ( **At this point I have put it in the refrigerator until I was ready to use it later in the day). Let the dough rise until double, this should take about an hour. Punch dough down and form a tight ball. Allow dough to relax a minute before rolling out.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. I have baked it on a pizza stone or a pizza pan. If using a pan, I grease it with olive oil. No need to preheat your pizza stone.
Bake in a preheated oven , until cheese and crust are golden brown about 15-20 minutes.
This makes one 12" pizza. I usually double it. Enough for 2 regular size pizzas with a little left over.
** The dough will rise will in refrigerator. Let warm to room temperature.
