Sherman's Pizza Dough

Adapted from Sherman's Pizza dough recipe. The original recipe made 20 16-oz dough balls

Ingredients

  • 2 cups warm water
  • 1 tbsp instant yeast
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 5 1/2 cups bread flour

Instructions

  • Start with warm water, sugar, yeast, and olive oil in the mixing bowl, and let it sit for 2 to 3 minutes so the yeast can activate.
  • Add flour
  • Mix until the dough feels smooth but not sticky. DO NOT OVERMIX.
  • Remove from the mixing bowl, place the dough in a bowl sprayed with pan spray, and let it rise for 30-45 minutes. Cover the dough with a towel to keep it from drying.
  • Remove from the bowl and place on a hard surface for cutting. Spray with pan spray to keep the dough from sticking to the cutting surface, then cut it into the needed sizes.
