Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 3/4 c warm water
  • 1/2 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp yeast (I used active dry)
  • 2 Tbsp olive or canola oil
  • 2 c all-purpose flour (divided)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted or salted butter (melted)
  • 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

Instruction

  • Place water and sugar in a large mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Stir until sugar dissolves.
  • Sprinkle yeast over the water and stir few times. Let sit until foamy ( about 5 minutes).
  • Turn the mixer on low speed and add 1 cup of flour and salt. Mix until combined.
  • Add oil and mix well.
  • Gradually add as much of the remaining cup of flour as you can ( it can be only 3/4 of it) and mix until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  • In the meantime, preheat the oven to 220 degrees F and when it's ready turn it off. Keep the door closed.
  • Grease the skillet.
  • Place dough onto a floured surface (use the remaining flour from the second cup) and fold the dough few times until you feel it's smooth and not sticky anymore. Shape into a ball.
  • Roll out the dough into a size of your skillet.
  • Place in skillet. Stretch up the sides. Cover with a kitchen towel and place in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Take the skillet out of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Make indentations in the dough with your fingers.
  • Mix melted butter, Parmesan and seasoning in a small bowl. Brush the dough with half the butter.
  • Place skillet with dough in the preheated oven and bake 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush with remaining butter. Let cool until safe to the touch and slice. Serve.
