Ingredients
(For about 12 10-inch pizzas)
- 2 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 packet instant yeast or active dry yeast
- 2 tsp honey or sugar
- 1 Tbsp salt
- 6 2/3 cup flour
- Olive oil to coat the bowl
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together water and honey. Then sprinkle with the yeast and let sit 5 minutes then stir.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the flour and the salt with a wooden spoon until combined. Then pour the yeast mixture while kneading using the hook attachment on low speed.
- Keep kneading on medium speed until dough comes together (dough will be sticky).
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature for 5 hours.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface, and make a ball (or 12 small balls) by gently pulling the sides over the center several times.
- Lightly oil a large bowl with olive oil and place dough in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and reserve in the fridge until ready bake.
- About an hour before baking, make sure to remove the bowl from the fridge so the dough gets to room temperature.
We usually make our pizzas in a pizza oven (directly on the stone) heated to 800°F. They take about 60-70 seconds to cook!
