Ingredients

1 cup warm water

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon (1 package) active dry yeast

1 tablespoon olive oil (or vegetable oil)

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon garlic powder, optional

Directions

Put the warm water and sugar in a mixing bowl, stir to dissolve sugar. Sprinkle yeast onto the water. Let sit for a 5-10 minutes.

In a separate bowl, combine together the flour, salt and garlic powder.

Stir the oil into the yeast and water. Stir in about 1/2 of the flour mixture and mix well. Stir in the other 1/2 of the flour and then turn out onto a floured counter and knead for 6-8 minutes until you have a smooth and elastic dough; add flour a little at a time, if necessary.

Cover and let rest on the counter for 10-15 minutes.

For Pizza Crust: Oil two pizza pans and sprinkle with cornmeal. Divide the dough in half . Pat and stretch the dough out until will fir your pan. Place on the pan and finish stretching with your fingertips until it fills the pan. Pinch a bit of a thicker edge. If dough is resistant to stretching, let rest for a few minutes and then continue stretching.

Par-Bake for about 10 minutes at 425*F. Top with sauce and toppings of your choice. If desired, brush the edge with garlic butter. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until cheese melts and just starts to get golden brown.

For Bread Sticks: Roll dough into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Cut into desired number of strips. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Brush with melted butter (you can add more garlic to the butter) and sprinkle lightly with salt. Allow rise for about 20 minutes,

Bake in a 425*F oven for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.

You can brush with more butter and sprinkle on Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic butter, pizza sauce. Best eaten warm right from the oven.

Re-heat in the oven (350*F) wrapped in foil for about 5 minutes or place in the toaster oven for a quick reheat.
