Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup assorted toppings (pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)
Instructions
- Gather all fresh ingredients including chopped bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms.
- Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl; let sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Mix flour and salt in another bowl. Combine the yeast mixture with olive oil and flour, knead until smooth, and let it rise for about an hour.
- Roll out the risen dough on a floured surface, place onto a pizza stone or baking tray. Spread pizza sauce, sprinkle mozzarella cheese, and add your desired toppings.
- Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C) and bake the pizza for about 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze slices for up to 2 months.
- Consider pairing with a fresh side salad or garlic bread.
- Customize toppings according to preference for a signature style.
- For a crispy crust, bake on a preheated pizza stone and brush the crust with olive oil before baking.
