1package active dry yeast

1teaspoon granulated sugar

1¼

cups warm water

 

(105° to 115°F.)

3¹⁄³

cups unbleached,

 

all-purpose flour

½tablespoon kosher salt

2teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Makes 1¾ pounds dough (six 7-inch crusts or three 12-inch crusts) / 36 servings

Approximate preparation time: 5 to 10 minutes, plus 55 minutes rising and resting, 5 minutes assembly and 10 minutes baking

In a 2-cup liquid measure, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Insert the dough blade into the large work bowl of the Cuisinart® Food Processor and add the flour and salt.

With machine running, pour the liquid slowly through the small feed tube as fast as the flour will absorb it. Once a dough ball forms and cleans the sides of the work bowl, process for an additional 30 seconds to knead dough. Dough may be slightly sticky. Coat dough evenly with extra virgin olive oil and transfer to a plastic food storage bag and seal the top. Let dough rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.

Place dough on a lightly floured surface; punch down and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Roll into desired crust sizes and place on baking pans lightly sprayed with vegetable oil cooking spray. Follow pizza recipe.
