  • In a large bowl whisk together 1 cup flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
  • Add water and oil and mix well until blended.
  • Gradually add more flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until dough forms into a ball. (Dough will be quite sticky but with you should be able to handle it with floured hands)
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 4-6 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  • Place dough in a bowl, cover tightly and allow to rise in a warm place for 10 minutes.
  • Divide dough into four equal-size pieces and roll or pat each into a 10-inch circle.

  • Bake in preheated oven on the lowest rack for 12-15 minutes until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Serve warm.
