Method
Step 1
Add 1 cup of warm water, yeast, and sugar to a small bowl to proof the yeast. To make sure your yeast is alive and kicking, it should start to bubble and foam in a few minutes. If it doesn't, your yeast is dead so try again.
Step 2
While the yeast is proofing, add the remaining 1 cup of water, melted butter, flour and salt to the bowl of your stand mixer.
Step 3
Once the yeast has proofed, add it to the stand mixer. Mix slowly with the kneading hook until it comes together. Once it has come together continue to knead for 5 minutes. The dough will stick to the bowl but shouldn't be so sticky it can't be worked with.
Step 4
After the 5 minutes is up the dough is ready to rise! Before rising you need to decide how much dough you need. This recipe will make 4 small pizzas, 2 medium/ largish pizzas or 1 extra-large pizza.
Step 5
Divide the dough as you'd like. The unused dough can be used to make breadsticks or frozen for next time.
Step 6
If rising in the Instant Pot, spray the pot with non-stick spray and then add the dough to the pot. Hit the yogurt button and make sure it is on 'normal'. when the timer reaches 30, your dough is ready to be shaped!
Step 7
If rising on the countertop, rise in a covered bowl in a warm spot for 60 minutes or until it doubles. Your dough is now ready to be shaped!
Step 8
Preheat oven to 425°F and place pizza stone inside.
Step 9
Shape dough onto parchment paper for easy transfer to the hot pan. Shape dough and top with your favorite toppings. Carefully slide onto the hot pan in the oven and bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
