Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups bread flour
• 1 package active yeast
• 1 cup warm water (test the water with your arm or fingers prior to using it)
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 tsp salt and sugar
• 2 cups marinara sauce
• 1 cup shredded cheese
• Additional toppings to taste and preference

Directions

• Flour your counter down with all-purpose flour. Pour all of the water in to the bowl and spread the yeast over the surface of the water. Do not touch the water or yeast. Allow it to sit still for 15 minutes.
• Mix the salt and sugar in with the bread flour. Slowly pour the dry ingredients in to the water, mixing as you go. Stand mixers are useful for this application. Spread the olive oil in the mixture. Once all of the ingredients were mixed together for the dough, allow it to sit until it doubles in size. Once it has, move it to your working surface.
• Roll the dough into a ball. Allow the ball to rise as well. Once it has risen a second time, it is ready to be made into a pizza. Preheat your oven as hot as it can go, placing a pizza stone on the bottom rack. Roll your dough out into a crust shape, as thin or thick, as you would like.
• Spread the marinara sauce on first, covering most of the dough. Spread the cheese over the top of the pizza next. Now work your other toppings across the brick oven pizza recipe. Once you are satisfied with the topping coverage, put the pizza in the oven on top of the pizza stone. Allow it to bake for approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the doneness of the pizza. Pull it out and serve after it has cooled.
