Ingredients
  

For the dough (for 2 large pizzas)

  • 250 ml lukewarm water
  • 1 package dry yeast
  • ½ tsp. sugar
  • about 500 gr of flour
  • 1-1 ½ tsp. salt
  • 3-4 tbsp. olive oil

For the pizza toppings

  • 4-5 tbsp. tomato sauce
  • a little oregano
  • vegan cheese
  • onion
  • mushrooms
  • olives
  • pepper
  • 3-4 tbsp. olive oil
  • salt, pepper
  • any extra or other ingredients of your choice

Instructions
 

For the dough

  • In a bowl, mix the water, yeast and sugar. Cover the bowl with a towel and set it aside at room temperature for 10 minutes to activate the yeast.
  • Add salt, olive oil, flour and knead. Let it rise for at least 1 hour.
  • Divide the dough in half to make 2 pizzas. If you want to keep the one piece for another time, wrap it in foil and put it in the freezer.
  • Put a bit of flour on a surface and open the dough with the rolling pin (or your hands) until you have a thin dough. Transfer it to the baking tray where you have placed parchment paper and start adding the toppings for your pizza.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 220° C for about 30 minutes (baking time and temperature depend on the oven).

Notes

  • The ideal flour for pizza is the Italian flour type 00. If you cannot find it, however, use all-purpose flour.
