Best Ever Pizza Crust

Directions

1. 1
   This recipe fits in an average pizza pan (14 to 16 size) or a 9x13 baking dish.
2. 2
   Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl.
3. 3
   Add in water (very warm) and olive oil, mix until combined.
4. 4
   Gradually stir in enough remaining flour until you have a soft dough.
5. 5
   Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about five minutes.
6. 6
   Cover and let rest on the floured surface for 10 minutes.
7. 7
   Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil your pan and sprinkle with cornmeal.
8. 8
   If cooking on a pizza stone, use parchment paper sprinkled with cornmeal to make the transition from counter to stone easy.
9. 9
   I highly encourage you to invest in a pizza stone if you make pizza regularly or if you really want to be able to make restaurant-style crust.

    It is amazing!
11. 11
    Roll dough out until it is 1/2 inch thick around the edges (or until the pan youre using is full) and dips down just slightly in the middle.
12. 12
    Once dough is spread out, cover with your desired toppings and bake for 812 minutes until crust edges are golden brown.
13. 13
    Watch crust closely as it can go from golden to overdone quickly, depending on your oven and your toppings.
