Preparation: 5 - 10 minutes, plus 55 minutes rising and resting,

5 minutes assembly and 10 minutes baking

2

teaspoons active dry yeast

1

teaspoon sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1-1/4 cups warm water (105˚ - 115˚F)

teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

In a 2-cup liquid measure, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Insert dough blade in work bowl and add flour, salt and 2 teaspoons olive oil.
