I found the recipe for the pizza crust on the yeast brand's website. I think it's a great recipe and it is so easy to make!

Ingredients
Units
Scale
- Pizza Crust
- 1 1/4-1 3/4 cup flour
- 1 packet of pizza crust yeast
- 1 1/2 tsp sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup very warm water, 120-130F
- 2 Tbsp oil
- Pizza Toppings
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- 4 ounces tomato sauce
- oregano
- garlic powder
- natural mozzarella, sliced in 1/2" pieces
- fresh basil, about 8 leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F degrees.
- Mix 1 cup of flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Add water and oil and stir until well-blended. The dough will be very sticky at this point, start adding more flour to the dough until it forms a soft ball (will be slightly sticky). Knead the dough on a floured surface (for about 4 minutes), adding more flour if it starts to feel sticky.
- Roll the dough out on a floured surface, until it is large enough to fit in 12 inch circular pan; place on the greased pan.
- Drizzle dough with olive oil (a couple of tablespoons will do). Spread with tomato sauce and sprinkle with a little oregano and garlic powder. Top with mozzarella slices.
- Bake pizza for 12 to 15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and crust is a golden brown.
- Top with basil leaves and serve immediately.
