Zubereitung von Basic Cheese Pizza
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups warm water (105-115°F), 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add more flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Roll each half into a 12-inch circle or your desired shape.
- Transfer the pizza dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
- Spread 1/2 cup pizza sauce evenly over each crust.
- Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Add your favorite toppings after baking for best results!
