BASIC PIZZA DOUGH 
2 1/4 c. flour, all-purpose
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. dried yeast
3/4 c. warm water
Olive oil

Sift flour into warm bowl. Add salt. In another bowl mix yeast and warm water. Allow to stand for 5 minutes then mix until smooth. Pour yeast mixture into the flour with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Mix with your hand to form a stiff dough. Knead on a floured board for 10 minutes. Rub oil on the dough ball, place in a lightly oiled bowl and put in a warm place until it has doubled in size. Roll out to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Brush with olive oil before spreading with topping.
