Mary's Pizza Dough
1 ounce fresh bakers yeast
1 tablespoon of 100% maple syrup
1 cup of warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
3 cups of white flour
1 tablespoon of sea salt
1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
Preheat oven to 500 degrees. A pizza stone works best for cooking the pizza. Place the pizza stone in the oven on the very bottom rack.
Crumble yeast in a small bowl then add ΒΌ cup of warm water and maple syrup. Stir together and let sit for 5 minutes.
Put flour and salt in a kitchen-aid mixer with dough hook attachment. Give the mixture a quick spin to mix the flour and salt. Pour in yeast mixture, remaining warm water (3/4 cup) and oil.
Spin on low until the flour and liquids come together. Put the ball of dough in a large bowl and cover with a few drops of olive oil to prevent a skin from forming. Cover with a dish towel and leave in a warm place for 30 minutes.
Roll out dough on a floured surface; you can use your hands or a rolling pin. Put toppings on the pizza and bake for 15 minutes at 500 degrees.Labels: Breads and pastries
