1 package baker's yeast

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup water -- lukewarm

1/4 teaspoon sugar

2 teaspoons salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup water and proof for 15 minutes.

Combine flour, salt, dissolved yeast, and remaining water. Stir in enough

additional flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto lightly floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Turn into greased

bowl, turn to coat all sides of dough with grease. Cover and allow to rise in

a warm place until double in bulk, about 45 minutes.

Punch dough down and divide in half. Form each half into a ball and roll

out to fit two 12 inch pizza pans. Top as desired.

10-15 minutes.
