Ingredients:
1 packet (1/4 oz.) active dry rapid-rise yeast
3 cups bread flour
1 1/4 cups lukewarm water (105 to 115° F)
1 1/2 tsp. honey
1 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. olive oil

Crisco (for greasing pans)

Preparation:
Mix 1/2 of flour with yeast, salt, water with honey dissolved in it, and olive oil. Beat with electric mixer for 3 minutes. Mix in remaining flour (dough should only be slightly sticky). Knead 5 minutes on a floured surface until smooth.

Place dough in lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for 10 minutes in a warm place. Punch dough down and divide in half. Punch down dough thoroughly and spread/stretch dough portion by hand and roller on a greased pizza pan. Move dough crust to pizza peel spread with coarse cornmeal or to pizza screen. Add sauce, cheese, and toppings and bake in preheated 500° F oven directly on the pizza stone for 8-10 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Cool 2-3 minutes on a wire rack before cutting and serving.

This recipe makes 2-13" crusts.
