📝 Preparation Steps
1
In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine yeast, warm water, and sugar, and let sit for ⏱️ 10 minutes. The liquid should be foamy and bubbly, indicating that the yeast is alive.
2
Add the bread flour, olive oil, and salt. Stir using the dough hook or a wooden spoon, until roughly combined. Fit the bowl and the dough hook onto the stand mixer and knead on medium-low speed for ⏱️ 10 minutes, until smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise for about ⏱️ 30 minutes, until the dough has doubled in size.
3
Remove the dough to a lightly floured surface and divide into four even pieces. Shape each piece of dough into a ball.
4
The dough is now ready to be rolled out and baked, or ready to be frozen.
5
To freeze the pizza dough: place the pizza dough balls into resealable plastic bags. Make sure that if you put multiple balls of dough in one bag, you use parchment paper or wax paper to keep them separated.
6
To thaw: place the pizza dough in the refrigerator the morning before you want to make dinner, then roll and bake as usual.
7
To bake: preheat the oven to 500˚. Roll the thawed (or freshly made) dough and bake each pizza about 10 to ⏱️ 15 minutes.
