Preparation
- Preheat oven to 375° F.
- Add yeast, sugar and warm water to a small bowl and stir. Make sure the yeast is completely dissolved. Cover bowl with a clean towel and let sit for 10 minutes. Yeast is properly proofed if the water is a bit frothy at the top.
- Add milk, salt and olive oil into yeast. Mix well.
- Add in flour and mix into a dough. If dough is too moist add in a small amount of flour.
- Cover bowl with a clean towel and let sit for 40 minutes to let the yeast flavor develop, *minimal rising will occur.
- Divide dough into two and place on a cookie sheet lined with corn meal. Using your fingers press into a pizza dish or oblong tray.
- Top pizza with desired toppings and bake for 15 to 25 minutes or until dough is slightly golden.
