Easy Pizza Dough

• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup canola oil
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 package rapid rising yeast

1. Preheat oven to 450º F.
2. Pour water into a measuring cup and heat in microwave to 120º to 130º F.  Add canola oil and set aside.
3. Combine 2 cups flour, salt and yeast in a large bowl. Add warm water and oil and stir to form the dough.  Stir in an additional 1/2-cup flour.
4. Place dough on a floured board.  Sprinkle with flour and knead dough 5 to 6 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add more flour as needed to prevent sticking.  Divide in half and form 2 balls.
5. Cover dough and let rise for 10 minutes.  Punch dough down and form each ball into a flat 12" pizza shape.  Place on pizza pan or baking stone.
6. Spread sauce over each pizza, add pizza toppings and bake at 425º F for 12 to 16 minutes until bubbly and browned on top.
