This is off of Martha Stewart, and it's the easiest I've ever seen. If you have never used yeast before, this is the recipe to start with!
Easy Rating: ****moderately easy
Prep Time: 60 min (including letting it rise)
Cook Time: 30-45 min (depending on how many toppings you put on)
Serves: 2-4
Categories: Dinner, Lunch, snack
Ingredients:
1 C. warm water (105-115 degrees)
1package yeast (1/4 oz)
1tsp honey
3 C. flour
1tsp salt
1tbsp olive oil
Mix 1/4 C. Water, honey, and yeast. Set aside
In a mixer mix flour, salt, olive oil (you can do it by hand, you just have to know how to knead it). Add yeast mixture and 3/4 C. Water. Mix until dough pulls away from sides of bowl (about 5 minutes). Knead until smooth (using the heel of your hand, just fold the edges into the middle, pushing the middle towards the outsides over and over again). Let rise (covered with a cloth) for 30 min. Shape (or you can put in small pizza sizes for kids), and let rise another 15 min. I usually bake the crust on its own and then add toppings to make sure it's not doughy, and then just put it back in for a few minutes 'till the cheese is melted. Bake crust at 350, or pizza at 450 until bottom of crust is slightly browning (about 15 min for crust, 45 if you put toppings on first).
