Easy Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe
  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water. Add the sugar and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until puffy and activated.

  2. Add 1 cup of the flour and mix with a dough hook until combined. Add the remaining flour and the salt. Mix on low speed.

  3. Pour in the oil and knead for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth, elastic, and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

  4. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces. Place each piece into a lightly oiled container. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.

  5. Remove the dough from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking to allow it to come to room temperature.

  6. Preheat your oven to the hottest temperature available. For best results, use a preheated pizza stone or cast iron pan.

  7. Working with one dough ball at a time, sprinkle cornmeal onto your work surface. Gently press and stretch the dough into a thin circle. Press a fork across the bottom to prevent large air bubbles.

  8. Add sauce and toppings. Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, or until the bottom and edges are crisp and golden.
