Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1.25 cups Warm water (approximately 110°F or 45°C)

Directions

Step 1

In the bowl of your food processor fitted with the dough blade or metal blade, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Pulse the dry ingredients together a few times to ensure they are thoroughly mixed.

Step 3

With the food processor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and warm water through the feed tube. Allow the dough to mix for about 1-2 minutes until it forms a sticky ball that pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

Step 4

If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it comes together. If it's too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time.

Step 5

Once the dough has formed, transfer it to a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for 2-3 minutes to ensure a smooth and elastic texture.

Step 6

Shape the dough into a ball and place it into a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel.

Step 7

Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 8

After rising, punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. It is now ready to be rolled out and used for your favorite pizza recipe!
