This week marks National Cheese Pizza Day on September 5. Impress your family and friends with this homemade dough from Allrecipes that’s easy-to-make and downright delicious.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a pizza pan. Add 1 cup warm water to a medium bowl. Add 1 package active dry yeast (.25 ounce) and 1 teaspoon sugar. Mix and let stand until creamy, around 10 minutes.
Add 2 1/2 cups bread flour, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt to the yeast mixture. Beat until smooth either by hand or using a stand mixer with a dough hook. Let rest for 5 minutes.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to the prepared pizza pan, top with sauce and mozzarella cheese. Bake until cheese is bubbling in the middle and crust
