Ingredients

• 220 grams All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Instant yeast
• 120 milliliters Water (lukewarm)
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Cornmeal or flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and instant yeast.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, mix the lukewarm water, olive oil, and honey until the honey dissolves.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula until a rough dough forms.

Step 4

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If it's too sticky, add a small amount of flour, 1 teaspoon at a time.

Step 5

Place the dough in a clean, lightly greased bowl. Cover it with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until it has slightly doubled in size.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 230°C (450°F) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

Step 7

Punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a thin circle or rectangle, about 12 inches wide, depending on your desired pizza shape.

Step 8

Sprinkle cornmeal or flour onto a parchment paper sheet to prevent sticking. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the parchment paper.

Step 9

Optional: Lightly prick the surface of the dough all over with a fork to prevent air bubbles during baking.

Step 10

Carefully slide the parchment paper with the dough onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.

Step 11

Bake the crust for 4-5 minutes to par-bake it. Remove from the oven and add your desired low-fat toppings.

Step 12

Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 7-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your healthier thin-crust pizza!
