Pizza

Dough - enough for 2 large pizzas

2 Cups warm water
4 tsp yeast
2 tsp sugar
6 cups all purpose flour
4 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt
1Tbsp Italian Seasoning mix

In a bowl mix yeast, sugar and water until dissolved.  Let sit for 5 minutes.  Preheat oven to 450F.
Add olive oil, salt, seasoning mix, mix well.  Add flour 1 cup at a time mixing well,  Once it is too thick to mix with spoon knead on a cutting  board until flour is added, and dough is smooth and no longer sticky.

Place dough in a clean bowl, cover with a clean towel and let rise for 5 to 30 minutes.  The more it rises the thicker the crust will be.

Roll dough out into a pizza shape, prick generously with fork.

Topping


Olive Oil
garlic
Italian Seasoning

Spread olive oil, pressed garlic clove, and Italian seasoning on crust. Place in preheated oven for 5 minutes.

Add toppings of choice.  Bake for 10 to 12 minutes longer - switching halfway through baking.

We use mozzarella cheese, sliced ham, olives, mushrooms, frozen 3 pepper/onion blend, and frozen spinach.  Can be meatless is you leave off the ham.
