BASIC PIZZA CRUST

From the Pioneer Woman

Ingredients:

1 tsp Active Dry Yeast

3/4 cup warm water

2 cups AP flour

3/4 tsp kosher salt

3 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:

Sprinkle yeast over 3/4 cups warm (not lukewarm) water. Let stand for a few minutes.

In a mixer, combine flour and salt. With the mixer running on low speed, drizzle in olive oil until combined with flour. Next, pour in yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined, and the dough comes together into a sticky mass.

Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, and form the dough into a ball. Toss to coat dough in olive oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set it aside for 1 to 2 hours, or store in the fridge until you need it.

Note: The dough will have better flavor if you make it 24 hours in advance.
