Mix 1 cup warm water, 1 tbsp sugar, and 2 ¼ tsp yeast together and let sit for a few minutes until foamy
In a separate bowl, combine 2 ¾ cups flour, 1 ½ tsp salt, and 1 tbsp olive oil
Add the foamy yeast mixture to the flour mixture and knead for a few minutes
Add ¼ cup more flour and knead until you have a slightly tacky dough ball
Oil your bowl and rub the oil around the dough, then cover and let sit for about an hour until doubled
Punch down the dough and knead on your counter for a few minutes, sprinkling with flour if too sticky
Divide dough into 4 equal parts
Use a rolling pin to roll each part into a thin rectangle
Roll up tight, pinch seams together, and place on a baking sheet with parchment paper
Cover and let rise for 30-40 minutes
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes
Brush tops with butter if desired
