Makes 2 x 12-inch Thick crust or 3 x 10-inch thin crust pizzas
For the Pizza Dough
- 325 grams (1⅓ cups) Warm water - 100℉/38℃ 110
- 15 g (1 tbsp) Sugar
- 15 g (1 tbsp) Olive oil
- 7 g (2¼ tsp) Instant dry yeast (1 packet)

Instructions
- Mix the Dough: Combine the flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the warm water, yeast, sugar, and olive oil and combine well.

- Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size.
- Preheat the Oven: Place your pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 475°F (245°C). Let the stone heat up for at least 30 minutes.
- Divide: Punch down the dough and divide it into 2 or 3 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and let them rest for 10 minutes. On a floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a thin circle, about 10-12 inches in diameter.
- Assemble: Sprinkle a pizza peel or parchment paper with cornmeal to prevent sticking. Place the dough on the peel or paper. Spread an even layer of homemade pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Add sliced black olives, kalamata olives, and red onion slices. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top.1 cup Pizza sauce, 50 g Parmesan cheese , 250 g Mozzarella cheese , ½ cup Sliced Olives, 1 small Red onoin
- Bake the Pizza: Slide the pizza onto the hot stone in the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven. Top with fresh arugula and red pepper flakes if desired. Slice and enjoy your homemade olive pizza!
