• 2 tsp. active dry yeast
• 3 cups unbleached all purpose flour
• 1-1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 cup olive oil, optional
• 1 cup water

All ingredients are measured for a small loaf and should be at room temperature. Add ingredients in order specified for your bread machine. Set on standard setting, medium, or normal baking cycle. At the end of final cycle, transfer dough to lightly oiled work surface and roll out to fit pan. For thick crust, roll to 1/2 inch allow cover with a clean kitchen cloth to rise about 20 minutes. For thin crust, simply transfer to pan that has been oiled or sprinkled with cornmeal. To make pizza, preheat oven to 450°F. Heap on your favorite toppings and bake about 15 minutes, or until crust is browned.
