Presidents Weekend Pizza Party!

In honor of Bella's 4 day weekend we decided to make pizza :-) Pizza is super fun for kids to make from the dough to spreading the toppings on....and the wonderful pleasure of eating your own home made dough, it makes a worlds difference and it's so easy!

So let's start with the dough. We used the below ingredients and recipe:

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast

1 cup warm water

2 cups bread flour

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

2 teaspoons white sugar

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.

2. In a large bowl combine 2 cups flour, olive oil, salt, white sugar, and yeast....stir well to combine. Beat well until stiff dough has formed.

3. Cover with a damp dowl and store in a warm place (I put mine in the pantry) and let rise. This takes about 1/2 hour.

And now the fun part....flour your surface and knead the dough! Roll out and form into pizza.
Once dough is rolled out you can add whatever toppings you like. We did pizza sauce, shredded cheese, mushrooms and basil.
Cook in a 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
