Recipe Ingredients

		Pizza Dough
1 cup	237ml	Warm water
1 1/2 oz	42g	Brewer's yeast
1 teaspoon	5ml	Sugar
1 teaspoon	5ml	Kosher salt
3 cups	187g / 6.6oz	All-purpose flour
		Topping
4		Plum tomatoes
4 tablespoons	60ml	Extra-virgin olive oil
4 teaspoons	20ml	Fresh oregano - roughly chopped
4		Fresh garlic cloves - sliced thinly

Recipe Instructions

Combine the water, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl and stir until dissolved. Add salt and 1 cup of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon to make a loose batter. Add 2 more cups of the flour and stir with the spoon for 2 to 3 minutes to incorporate as much flour as possible.

Bring the dough together by hand and turn out onto a floured board or marble surface. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes, until you have made a smooth, firm dough. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a towel. Set aside to rise in the warmest part of the kitchen for 45 minutes.

Cut the risen dough into 4 equal pieces and knead each portion into a round. Cover again and let rest 15 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place a clean pizza stone in oven to preheat.

Dust a clean work surface lightly with flour. With your fingers and palms, flatten one of the dough rounds into a 10-inch oval about 1/4-inch thick. Spread 1/4 cup of the passata evenly on entire surface of dough, leaving 1/4-inch of dough to form edge of pizza.

Thinly slice one tomato and place on dough. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil over entire pizza. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon oregano and 1 clove thinly sliced garlic over tomatoes.

Bake on a pizza stone until crust is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough. Serve hot.
