HOW TO MAKE Homemade Pizza INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE HOMEMADE PIZZA: Dough: 1 ½ cup of luke warm water 1 tsp yeast 1 tsp sugar 2 ½ cups of flour 2 tsp salt (This will make two pizzas, we refrigerator one for up to a week so we can have pizza any time) Pizza Sauce: 1 tsp salt 1 tsp ground pepper 3 gloves of garlic 1 tsp of lime juice 1 tsp of our everything spice Mozzarella cheese (as much or as little as you like) HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE PIZZA: First we are going to make the dough for the pizza, we use the same recipe as our bread dough, Video #4 To start microwave 1½ cup of water for 30 seconds to get the right temperature and then pour the water into a bowl and add 1tsp of yeast and 1tsp of sugar. Let this rest for 10 mins to allow the yeast to activate. After the timer goes off add 2 ½ cups of flour and 2 tsp of salt, knead the dough until it starts to stick to itself and not the bowl. Then place it in an oiled container for 2 hours to rest. After two hours the dough is ready to cut in half and shaped into pizza crust. We refrigerator one half of the dough so we can have pizza later in the week. Shape the dough by working it with your hands, press it outward to slowly shape a circle. If you are not comfortable tossing the dough just use a rolling pin. Be careful not to overwork the dough or it will tear. Set that aside. Now we are ready to make the pizza sauce. Use 1 standard can of diced tomatoes and drain off the excess liquid. Pour into a blender and add 1tsp salt, 1tsp ground pepper, 3 garlic cloves, 1tsp lime juice, and 1tsp of our everything spice. Once the mixture is fully blended you are done! Now slice or grate your preferred cheese, we like mozzarella on our pizza.

Spray a pizza pan or a cookie sheet and place the formed dough on the pan. Smooth the dough out and then add your pizza sauce. Now place the cheese slices on top and any other toppings you may like. Before the pizza goes in the oven put some olive oil on the crust to help it brown
