 Ingredients:

 Pizza Dough:
– 2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
– 1 1/2 cups warm water (about 110°F or 45°C)
– 1 tablespoon sugar
– 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon salt

 Toppings:

5. Knead the dough again with your hands and then put it in a lightly oil bowl; cover it with a thin cloth or plastic foil and leave it in a warm place for about an hour or until the dough has increased in size.
