Homemade Supreme Pizza

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the yeast, sugar, and water. Cover and let stand for 5-10 minutes, until bubbles form on top.
3. In a large mixing bowl, mix together yeast mixture, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt. Add in 3 cups of flour, a cup at a time, mixing after each addition. If the dough seems sticky, add more flour, a couple of tablespoons at a time.
4. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead until slightly stiff, about 6 minutes.
5. If time allows, let the dough rise for 1 hour.* If allowing to rise, punch the dough down before the next step.
6. Lightly grease two pizza pans with oil. Roll out the dough and stretch to fill the pans. Use your fingers to press and stretch as needed.
7. Let dough rise in pans for 10 minutes. Poke pizza dough with a fork all over.
8. Brush pizza dough with remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and top with pizza sauce, toppings, and cheese as desired.
9. Bake 15-18 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden.
