Ingredients:

  • 3 cups (375g) bread flour
  • 1 cup (235ml) warm water
  • 2 ¼ tsp (7g) instant yeast
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 ½ tsp (9g) fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp (5ml) honey

Instructions:

  1. Combine the warm water, honey, and instant yeast in a bowl. Stir in the olive oil.
  2. Gradually add the bread flour and salt. Mix until a shaggy, cohesive ball forms and no dry flour streaks remain.
  3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3–5 minutes until the surface is smooth and springs back when poked.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rest for 30 minutes in a warm spot.
  5. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Divide the dough into two equal portions.
  6. Stretch or roll each piece into a 12-inch circle on parchment paper, add toppings, and bake for 12–15 minutes until edges are mahogany-colored.
