Ingredients
- 5 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 1/2 cup cornmeal 2 envelopes (1/4 ounce each) rapid-rise yeast 4 teaspoons coarse salt 1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for brushing Four Pizza Toppings Chunky Tomato Sauce for Basic Pizza
Directions
Make the dough: In a food processor, pulse together flour, cornmeal, yeast, and salt. With processor running, add oil and then 2 cups cold water in a steady stream; process until dough just forms a ball.
Turn out dough onto a floured work surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, 3 to 4 times. Place in a resealable bag; let rise until doubled in bulk, 2 hours at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator (let come to room temperature before proceeding, about 40 minutes).
Divide dough into four equal portions; roll into balls, and cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap until puffed, about 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Place each dough ball on a baking sheet; using your hands, gently flatten, and pull into 8-by-10-inch ovals. Top as desired.
Bake until crust is gold brown and toppings are hot, rotating sheets halfway through, 10 to 12 minutes.
Cook’s Notes Be sure to use only rapid-rise yeast to make this easy pizza dough; regular dry yeast has to be activated with hot water before its added to the flour mixture.
