• 2. Add the water and mix on medium speed until the mixture forms a smooth dough, about 10 minutes.
• 3. Lightly oil a large bowl and the pizza dough with some olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, cover with a damp cloth and put it in a warm place for 1 1/2 hrs, or until the dough has doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil a half sheet pan or rimmed cookie sheet.
• 4. Once the dough has risen, remove it from the bowl. Working on a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a rectangle the size of the sheet pan, allowing for a 1/2 inch overhang around the edges of the pan.
• 5. Carefully place the rolled dough onto the prepared pan and turn up the overhang to make an even edge all the way around. Set the dough aside to rest for 15 minutes and to allow it to finish rising.

Add 1 extra tablespoon of flour if needed. Coat your hands in a bit of olive oil and form the dough into a ball. Place the dough in a bowl that is coated in olive oil. Cover with a towel and proof the dough in a warm place until it doubles in size, 1 hour.
