2 1/2
cups
flour
all white or mix white and wheat flour
1
tablespoon
sugar
1
teaspoon
salt
1
package
2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
3
tablespoons
Olive Oil
1
cup
very warm water

Instructions
For pizza dough:
Combine yeast, sugar, 1 cup flour, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the warm water and oil and mix.
Stir in remaining flour slowly until dough is soft but not sticky.
Knead until smooth.
Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before making the pizza.
For the skillet pizza:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Split the dough in half.
Coat a large oven safe skillet with oil.
Take half the pizza dough and press it into the bottom of the skillet.
Add pizza sauce, spreading to cover.
Now top with shredded cheese.
Finally, add your toppings.
I cut out heart shaped pepperonis with a mini cookie cutter and added additional toppings like spinach, olives, and onions.
Bake for 16-18 minutes or until bubbly and golden.
Let cool slightly then using a spatula remove pizzas to a cutting board.
Cut into squares or triangles using a pizza cutter and serve warm.
I hope you and your sweethearts enjoy this delicious homemade pizza!
