Directions:
Add yeast and sugar to the warm water in a stand mixer and let sit for a few minutes. Add Olive Oil, salt and 3 cups of flour (1 cup at a time) until the dough forms a ball. If the dough is still sticky, slowly add more flour. If the dough is too dry, add a little water at a time.
Grease a bowl and add the dough, cover with a plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place for 1 hour. Punch dough down and divide into portions (will make 2 medium to large pizzas). Let rest for 10 more minutes and you are ready to bake!
