Ingredients
-
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
-
1 cup warm water (100 degrees F / 38 degrees C)
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
-
1 ¾ teaspoons salt
-
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
-
1 teaspoon olive oil, divided
-
Place yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer and add 1 cup warm water and 1 cup flour. Whisk together, then let sit until mixture bubbles and foams, about 15 minutes.
-
Add 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture, followed by 1 1/2 cups flour. Mix at low speed, using a dough hook attachment, until dough is soft, supple, and slightly sticky. Knead dough with machine on low speed until slightly springy and still soft, 5 to 6 minutes. If dough sticks to the sides of the bowl, add up to 1/4 cup more flour, a little at a time. Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and form into a ball.

Wipe inside of bowl with 1/4 teaspoon olive oil. Turn dough around in bowl to lightly cover with oil; cover bowl with foil and let rise until dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
