Pizza Dough Ingredients:

1 1/2 Cup Warm Water (divided)
2 1/4 tsp Active Dry Yeast (1 packet of yeast)
2 1/4 tsp Sugar
4 Cups Bread Flour
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Garlic Powder (optional)
1/4 Cup Olive Oil

Instructions:

To a small bowl, add 1/2 Cup warm water, yeast, and sugar. Stir yeast mixture until well blended and sugar is dissolved. Let yeast bloom for at least 5 minutes.

While yeast is blooming, add 4 Cups Bread Flour, Salt, and Garlic Powder to a large mixing bowl. Stir together dry ingredients until blended.

Add yeast mixture to flour mixture.
Add Olive Oil
Add 1 Cup Warm Water

Mix everything on slow speed until dough ball is formed (usually 1-2 minutes)

Turn mixer up to a higher speed and mix dough for additional 5-8 minutes or until a smooth dough ball is formed.

Take dough out of mixing bowl, spray mixing bowl with non-stick olive oil or use real olive oil.

Form dough into a tight ball and place into mixing bowl. Coat outside of dough ball with olive oil to prevent a skin from forming on the ball.

Cover mixing bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise until double in size. (usually 1 hour)

After dough has doubled in size, punch the dough down, cover it once again and let it rise a 2nd time.

After the 2nd rising, your pizza dough is ready to be used to make pizza crust. Enjoy!!!
