3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F or 43°C) – negligible calories

1 tablespoon olive oil – 120 calories

Total Calories: 1,057 calories


Instructions:

1. Prepare the Yeast

Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup warm water (not too hot, around 110°F or 43°C) and 1 teaspoon sugar. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon active dry yeast over the water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy. This step ensures that the yeast is active. (Approx. 11 calories from yeast and 16 calories from sugar. Total: 27 calories)

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 3/4 teaspoon salt until well combined. (Approx. 910 calories from flour)

3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Add Wet Ingredients: Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it to the flour mixture along with 1 tablespoon olive oil. (Approx. 120 calories from olive oil)

Mix Dough: Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or your hands until it starts to come together into a dough.

4. Knead the Dough

Knead Dough: Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time. (This step doesn’t add calories, but the dough will absorb a little flour if you use it.)

5. Let the Dough Rise

First Rise: Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat the surface with oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1-1.5 hours or until it has doubled in size. (No calories added in this step.)



6. Preheat Oven

Preheat Oven: About 30 minutes before the dough is ready, preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

7. Shape the Dough

Punch Down Dough: Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release the air.

Divide Dough: If making multiple pizzas, divide the dough into 2 equal parts for larger pizzas or 4 parts for personal-sized pizzas.

Shape Dough: On a lightly floured surface, use your hands or a rolling pin to stretch and shape the dough into your desired pizza shape (round or rectangular).

8. Prepare for Baking

Transfer to Baking Surface: If using a baking sheet, lightly oil it or line it with parchment paper. If using a pizza stone, sprinkle it with flour or cornmeal to prevent sticking.

Add Toppings: Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings on the shaped dough.

9. Bake the Pizza

Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
