2-1/2 to 3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup warm water (120° to 130°) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 can (15 ounces) pizza sauce |
4 cups (16 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese |
1 package (3-1/2 ounces) sliced pepperoni |
Directions:
1. Ina bowl, combine 2 cups flour, yeast and salt. Add water and oil; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
