Ingredients
  

  • 500 g strong bread flour
  • 7 g dried yeast
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 325 ml warm water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

Mix the Dry Ingredients

  • Take a large bowl and add flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix them well using a spoon. Make sure everything is evenly combined before adding water. This helps create a smooth dough later.

Add Warm Water Slowly

  • Pour warm water little by little into the flour mixture. Stir gently as you pour. The dough will start forming slowly. Do not rush this step. It should look sticky but combined.

Knead the Dough Properly

  • Place the dough on a clean surface. Add a little flour on hands. Knead the dough for about 8–10 minutes. It should become soft, smooth and elastic. This step builds good pizza texture.

Let the Dough Rest

  • Place the dough back in the bowl. Cover it with a clean cloth. Let it rest for about 1 hour. The dough will rise and double in size. This makes the pizza light and airy.

Shape the Dough

  • Once risen, gently punch the dough to remove air. Divide it into equal portions. Roll each piece into a round shape. Use a rolling pin or hands. Keep edges slightly thicker for crust.

Prepare for Baking

  • Place the shaped dough on a baking tray. Add your favorite sauce and toppings. Bake in a hot oven for 10–12 minutes. The crust should turn golden and crispy on edges.

Notes

  • Use olive oil for extra soft dough texture
  • Let dough rest longer for better flavor
  • Add garlic powder for a flavored crust
  • Use whole wheat flour for a healthier version
  • Freeze extra dough for later use
  • Brush crust with butter for rich taste
