Quick Basic Pizza Dough
This dough is a cinch — give it time to rise and a couple of kneads and it’s done! You can store it in an oiled bowl, covered with plastic, in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
-
Pour 1 1/2 cups warm water into a large bowl; sprinkle with yeast and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
-
Whisk sugar, oil, and salt into yeast mixture. Add flour and stir until a sticky dough forms. Transfer dough to an oiled bowl and brush top with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draft-free place until dough has doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and gently knead 1 or 2 times before using.Watch: How to Measure Flour

To freeze, you can wrap the dough in plastic and freeze it in a resealable freezer bag for up to 3 months. If you plan to use it in a recipe that calls for half a batch, divide it before freezing.
