Homestyle Pizza Dough

This is one of my favorite pizza doughs. It is really good made into Barbecue Chicken Pizza.

1 c warm water
1 TBS yeast
3 TBS olive oil
2-3 c bread flour
1 t salt

Beat half of the flour, yeast oil, and water for 3 minutes. Add salt and enough flour to make a soft dough. Beat for an additional minute, or until it looks smooth. Let rise for an hour in an oiled bowl for an hour covered with plastic wrap.

You can also add herbs and cheeses to the dough if you'd like (during the last mixing phase).

Roll out on a stone, or pizza pan to desired thickness. I like to first sprinkle a little corn meal on the stone or pan. Load on desired toppings and bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes (or until the bottom is lightly golden and crisp.
