   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2 1/2           cups  all-purpose flour
      1/2      teaspoon  salt
   1           teaspoon  sugar
   1            package  active dry yeast -- (1/4 oz)
   1                cup  water -- warm

Pizza crust is so easy to make. .  This makes 2 (12") pizza crusts or 
you could make 3 (8") pan sized pizzas.  You can make this in a 
square on a baking sheet if you don't have a pizza pan.  The dough 
keeps well in the refrigerator for several days or you can freeze it.

Prep: 45 mins
Cook: 15 mins
Total: 1 hr

Whisk together the flour, salt and sugar.  Add the yeast to the cup 
of warm water and stir to dissolve.  Mix the yeast into the flour. (I 
used the dough hook on my mixer to do this. You can do it by hand, 
too) Turn out onto a floured board and add more flour or water if 
needed until you can handle and knead the dough.

Knead dough until smooth and elastic.  Grease a bowl with cooking 
oil,  place dough in the bowl turning over once to make sure it is 
greased on both sides. Cover and let rise in a warm place about 45 
minutes to 1 hour. Dough should double in size. Once the dough rises 
remove and divide in half. Knead enough on floured surface to get any 
bubbles out of the dough.   Roll each half into a 12" circle and 
place on a sprayed pizza pan.

Once the dough rises remove and divide in half. Knead enough on 
floured surface to get any bubbles out of the dough.  Roll each half 
into a 12" circle and place on a sprayed pizza pan.

Once you have your dough rolled out and on the pizza pan bake it for 
about 8 minutes at 425F before adding toppings.  Remove from oven 
brush crust with either tomato sauce or pizza sauce,  add your 
toppings and cook about 15 minutes longer until cheese is melted and 
crust is brown at 425F.

Note: Meat toppings such as hamburger, sausage, bacon, ham, chicken, 
etc. should be cooked before adding to pizza.
