Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF.

2. Place the flour, baking powder and the salt into a bowl. Make a well in the center and add the water and oil.

3. Combine by gradually incorporating the flour into the olive oil and water. You may want to add a little more water if necessary.

4. Transfer the dough to a floured board and knead it at least for 5-7 minutes.

5. Let the dough rest in an air tight plastic bag while you prepare the toppings for your pizza.

6. Once the toppings are made, set them aside and take the dough out of the plastic bag.

7. Put a tiny bit of oil in the center of your pizza pan and with your hands and finger tips spread the dough to cover the pan. I use a 12 inch pizza pan. You could probably stretch it to 15 inches, but it would be a thinner crust.

8. Place your pizza sauce on the dough and then cover with your favorite toppings.

9. Pop it into the preheated oven. Check it after about 20 minutes to see how the crust is browning. Some ovens are hotter then others, so this is a good habit to get into.

10. Enjoy!
