serves

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (+ more to dust the dough and surfaces)flour
1 teaspoon instant yeastyeast
1/4 teaspoon saltsalt
1 teaspoon olive oil (+ more to coat the dough)
3/4 cup lukewarm waterwater

Instructions (6 steps)

01Combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the olive oil and water. Mix and knead by hand until it's a soft, non-sticky dough or put all the ingredients in a  kitchen machine and let the machine knead the dough for you. Finetune the dough: If it's too sticky, add more flour. If it's too crumbly, add more water.
02Coat the ball of dough in a drizzle of olive oil. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise until it has doubled in size (2-3 hours depending on the room temperature). 
03Preheat the oven to 480°F/250°C. 
04Divide the dough into two equal parts. Carefully roll it out on a lightly floured parchment paper into two pizza crusts (don't use too much pressure). You can stretch it a bit with your hands until it has the right shape.
