Quickly stir together the dry yeast and water in a large mixing bowl using a whisk or wooden spoon. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and allow it to sit for 5 minutes, or until the yeast begins to get foamy.
Add the olive oil and honey. Give the mixture another quick stir.
Gently whisk in the flour until a shaggy dough forms and begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
Transfer your dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it by hand for a few minutes. Divide your dough into two balls and roll them each out into flat discs.
Transfer your pizza dough to lightly oiled pizza pans and top them with the marinara sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
Bake your pizza for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Using a combination of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese gives your pizza a balance of mild and sharp flavors.
The pizza dough recipe listed above makes enough for two 12-inch pizzas.
Freshly grated mozzarella cheese will melt better than pre shredded cheese, but feel free to use what you have on hand. As far as Parmesan goes, it doesn’t really matter if you use freshly grated or bottled cheese.
For some extra flavor on your crust, brush it with butter and then sprinkle it with
Italian seasoning before adding your sauce and cheese.
You can store your pizza in the fridge for 4 days and reheat a slice or two in the microwave for 45 seconds, or until the cheese is gooey.
