Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 ¾ cups warm water (about 110°F)
- ¼ cup olive oil (plus more for drizzling)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix flour and salt together. In another bowl, combine yeast with warm water and let sit until bubbly (5-10 minutes).
- Pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture along with olive oil, mixing until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth or use a stand mixer for 3-4 minutes.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (1-1.5 hours).
- Punch down the dough gently, place it on an oiled baking sheet, and stretch it to fit the pan. Create dimples on the surface.
- Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with minced garlic and parmesan cheese, then let rise again for about 20-30 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
