crust, while others prefer thick and soft pizza crust. This homemade pizza crust has
it all: soft & chewy with a delicious crisp and AWESOME flavor. This recipe yields
two 12-inch pizzas and is meant to be used in conjunction with the other recipes.

Ingredients Instructions:
1 and 1/3 cups (320ml) warm water (between 1. Mix warm water, yeast, and granulated sugar together in a large mixing bowl.
100-110°F, 38-43°C) 2. Add the olive oil, salt, and flour, mix for 2 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a
2 and 1/4 teaspoons Red Star Platinum instant lightly floured surface. With lightly floured hands, knead the dough for 3-4
11ml yeast (1 standard packet)* minutes. After kneading, poke it with your finger – if it slowly bounces back, your

2 Tablespoons (30ml) olive oil 3. Lightly grease a large bowl with oil. Place the dough in the bowl, coat all sides
3/4 teaspoon (4ml) salt in the oil. Cover the bowl and allow the dough to rise at room temperature for
3 and 1/2 cups (440g) all-purpose flour (spoon 60-90 minutes or until double in size. (Tip: For the warm environment on cold

al but recommended 4. Place pizza stone in the oven and preheat oven to 475°F (246ºC) for at least
30 minutes.
5. Shape the dough: Punch dough down to release any air bubbles. Divide the
dough in half. On a lightly floured work surface, using lightly floured hands,
gently flatten the dough into a 12-inch (30 cm) circle. Lift or pinch the edge of
the dough up to create a lip around the edges. Place the dough directly on
pizza peel dusted with cornmeal.
6. Cover dough lightly as you prepare pizza toppings. Highly recommended to
sprinkle the stone lightly with cornmeal, which gives the crust extra crunch and
flavor before sliding pizza in.
