PIZZA CRUST RECIPE:
Ingredients:
1 (1/4 oz.) envelope active dry yeast
2 tsp. sugar
1 1/4 c. warm water (105-115 degrees)
3 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. olive oil
Cornmeal

Directions:
Combine yeast, sugar and water in a 2 cup liquid measuring cup; let stand for 5 minutes.

In a food processor bowl, combine flour and salt.  Pulse several times to combine.  With processor running, slowly add yeast mixture and oil.  Continue running processor until mixture is combined and forms a ball.

On a lightly floured surface, turn dough out and knead for 5 minutes.  Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top.  Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, for 1 hour or until dough is doubled in bulk.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 

Punch dough down; knead lightly 4 or 5 times.  Roll dough into an 18 inch circle. 

Spray a 15 inch pizza stone lightly with cooking spray; sprinkle with cornmeal.  Place dough round on top of stone, folding edges over to fit stone.  Prick with a fork.

Top with desired sauce and toppings.  Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
