I make this one and it has never failed to make good crust .
Pizza Dough
1 c Luke warm water
1 pk Yeast
1 ts Salt (or garlic salt if you wish)
1 tb Sugar
1 tb Oil
2 1/2 c Flour (may need more to make the dough easy to work)
Mix water yeast and sugar in a bowl and let stand for 1-2 min.
Add remaining ingredients and knead the dough for 5-10 min. until elastic.
When making the pizza I have found that a pizza stone works best for maintaining a crispy bottom crust.
If you don't have a pizza stone try greasing your pan and then dust it with corn meal.
For crisper pizza,,
Bake the crust by itself (no toppings) for about 10 min.
Then top and finish baking.

I forgot to add that you will need to let the dough raise for about 15 minutes or so before you put it in the pan.

1 1/2 c very warm water
1 pkg yeast (or 1 heaping TBS)
1 tsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 TBS oil
4 c flour


Mix the dry ingredients, then add the oil and water. If the crust seems too dry add a bit of water...if too wet add a bit of flour. When you have the right consistency, grease the pan and then spread it out.

It helps to put butter on your hands or even spray pam on your hands to keep your hands from sticking to the crust as you spread it out.
