Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast; let it sit until frothy.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour; mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  5. Roll or stretch the dough onto a greased sheet pan.
  6. Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
  7. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and add your desired toppings.
Cooking
  1. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
  2. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

For a thicker crust, let the dough rise for 30 minutes. Try swapping half the flour for whole wheat for a healthier twist. Use a pizza stone for a crispier bottom.
