1. Add warm water, sugar, and yeast to the bowl of a bosch mixer or kitchen aid with the dough attachment. Make sure the water is warm/room temperature and not too hot to avoid killing the yeast. Let proof for about 10 minutes until bubbly.
2. Add olive oil, salt, and 3 cups of flour. Mix well. Continue to add flour until the dough begins to pull away from the side of the bowl. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky, but should hold it's shape. You may not use all of the flour called for.
3. Once the dough has the correct amount of flour, continue to mix and knead for 5-7 minutes on medium speed. The dough should spring back when "poked" when it is finished kneading.
4. Place Dough in a large bowl sprayed with cooking spray. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until approximately doubled in size. This usually takes ~45 minutes but will vary.

1. Add the water, yeast, sugar, salt, and olive oil to a large bowl. Allow mixture to stand for 5 minutes.
2. Add one cup of flour, and mix to combine. Add another cup of flour and mix through. Mix by hand for 1 or 2 minutes. The dough should be the consistency of cake batter. Add another cup of flour and mix until well combined. Add flour until you can’t mix it by hand very well.
