Recipe: Super Fast Pizza Crust (food processor)

SUPER FAST PIZZA CRUST

"This is the real thing, streamlined so it can be made in a flash; makes a thin crust."

1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
2/3 cup warm water
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 teaspoon salt

Stir yeast and sugar into the 2/3 cup warm water in a small bowl; let stand until foamy, 5 minutes.

Combine flour, oil and salt in a food processor or a large mixing bowl. Slowly add the yeast mixture. Mix or stir until the mixture forms a soft dough. Process for 45 seconds or knead on a board until the dough is supple and smooth.

Roll on a floured board to a 14-inch circle and transfer to an oiled pizza pan.

Top and bake until crust is golden, 18 to 22 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
