Homemade Pizza Crust

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 pkg instant yeast
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 3/4 cup warm water

Instructions
 

  • In the bowl for your mixer, combine one cup of flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and garlic powder. Turn on the mixer with the dough hook attached and slowly pour in warm water and olive oil. Then slowly add another cup of flour.
  • Once the dough is combined and has pulled away from the sides and into a ball, turn off the mixer. If your dough is still sticky or wet you can add a little bit more flour.
  • Lightly oil a bowl, place the pizza dough in the bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rise for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. On a floured surface, turn the pizza dough out and knead for about one minute. You can make one pizza or divide the dough up into individual pizzas.
  • Roll your dough out to your desired thickness, using a fork poke holes into the dough and brush the dough with olive oil. Then top your pizza with pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
