Starting Guide

Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 packet of active dry years or 2 1/4 teaspoons
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions
- Mix sugar in warm water; then add yeast. Allow yeast to grow for 10 minutes you will see bubbles start to form.
- In a large mixing bowl combine flour, salt, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary and basil.
Add yeast mixture and vegetable oil and stir to combine until dough has formed a sticky ball.
If the dough is too flaky add 1 teaspoon of water at a time - Remove the dough from mixing bowl and lightly oil the bowl, place dough back into bowl.
- Cover bowl with a cloth and allow it to rise in a warm, draft free area for about 30 minutes.
- Once the dough has risen, punch the dough down and flatten into a greased backing dish.
Use your fingers to make indents across the dough and cover dough with 1 cup olive oil spread evenly.
At this point you can also add extra seasonings on top if you want. I personally add some rosemary. - Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown on top.
