Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Thin-Crust Pizza Dough.
Step 1
Start by assembling all the essential ingredients for your pizza dough.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix active dry yeast and white sugar with lukewarm water, ideally around 110°F or 44°C.
Step 3
Let this blend rest for 5 to 8 minutes until the yeast softens and develops a creamy foam.
Step 4
In a spacious mixing bowl, combine 1 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour with salt, then pour in the yeast mixture and stir until a dough begins to take shape.
Step 5
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for about 2 minutes until it becomes smooth.
Step 6
If the dough feels too sticky, gradually incorporate the remaining 1/4 cup of flour as needed.
Step 7
Roll the dough into a 12-inch circle and place it on a greased pizza pan, ready for your favorite toppings.
Step 8
Bake until the crust turns golden brown, and savor the delightful experience of enjoying your homemade pizza.
