Classic Homemade Pizza

Prepare the Pizza Dough In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.

2.Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) and prepare a pizza stone or baking sheet.

Assemble the Pizza Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Roll out each half on a floured surface into your desired pizza shape. Place the dough on the pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread marinara sauce over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the sauce. Add your favorite pizza toppings.

Bake the Pizza Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Remove from the oven and let the pizza cool slightly before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade pizza!
