• To the pan of the bread machine, add water, olive oil, salt, sugar or honey, flour and yeast.
• Insert the pan in the bread machine, close the lid and plug the machine in.
• Choose the “pizza dough” setting on your machine. Most bread machines knead and let the dough rise in total of 45-60 minutes.
• When the dough cycle is over, switch off the machine then remove the pan and remove the dough from the pan.
• If you wish to make 2 medium pizzas, divide the dough into 2 balls. If you wish to make 4 personal/small pizzas, divide into 4 balls. As you preheat your oven, let the dough balls rest and rise a little (I cover with oil plastic wrap).
• Shape/stretch the pizza, top with pizza sauce (2 tablespoons for small pizza, or 4 tbsp for a large pizza), add cheese, and bake in a preheat oven, air fryer, or grill your pizza.

To bake the pizza in the oven (traditional way):

• Preheat the oven to the highest temp possible (mine goes up to 550°F) and place the pizza stone in the oven if you have one.
• Sprinkle the pizza peel with semolina to prevent the dough from sticking, then shape your dough gently with your hands into a 12-inch circle. Before adding any toppings, make sure that the pizza can slide off onto the pizza stone easily. If not, just lift it up gently and sprinkle with more semolina. Don’t push the dough too hard, and start working it from the center. Leave the edges puffed up for a great pizza shape and bubbles.
• Add a thin layer of pizza sauce, and your favorite toppings.
• Carefully slide off the pizza onto the HOT pizza stone, and bake for 4-5 minutes. Switch to the broiler, and broil for 3-5 more minutes but keep an eye on your pizza not to burn it. To add more flavor, drizzle with chilli oil and serve.

to bake the pizza in the oven (using a sheet pan):

• Coat your sheet pan with olive oil, and form the dough into a rectangle inside of the pan. Add the toppings, and bake in a preheated 450°F/230°C oven for 15-25 minutes. Keep an eye on things. If the bottom crust seems done but the top needs more time, switch to the broiler to finish the job.
