Easy Pizza Dough Recipe

Add 4 cups of flour along with the extra virgin olive oil and sea salt and stir until the rough ball of dough forms.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough should be tacky but not sticky. Add more flour a little bit at a time if needed.

Once kneaded, divide the dough into two pieces and place each dough ball in a zip top bag or airtight container. Place in the refrigerator to rise for at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours for best results.

After rising, take the dough out to come to room temperature for 30 minutes and preheat the oven to 475˚.

Stretch each dough ball out onto an oiled 12-inch pizza pan or pizza stone or baking sheet that has been sprinkled with cornmeal.

Add the desired toppings to the pizza and bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
