Perfect Every Time Pizza or Calzone Dough Recipe

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.

Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a rough dough forms.

Transfer the dough onto a clean, floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

After the dough has risen, preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

Punch down the dough and divide it into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and let rest for 5 minutes.

Roll out each ball of dough into a round shape, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Transfer the rolled dough onto a pizza stone or baking sheet.

Add your desired pizza or calzone toppings.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are cooked to your liking.

Remove from the oven and let the pizza or calzone cool for a few minutes before serving.
