INGREDIENTS

  • Dough

    • 2 ÂĽ teaspoons active dry yeast
    • 🍬 1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
    • đź’§ 1 â…› cups warm water (110 to 115 degrees F)
    • 🌾 3 cups all-purpose flour

STEPS

1

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 to 10 minutes.

2

Combine yeast mixture, flour, corn oil, and kosher salt in a large stand mixer fitted with the dough hook; knead until dough holds together but is still slightly sticky, about 2 minutes.

3

Form dough into a ball and transfer to a buttered bowl. Turn to coat dough with butter, then cover the bowl with a towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 6 hours.

4

Punch down dough and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Press dough into a 10-inch deep-dish pizza pan and follow your pizza recipe.
