Homemade Pizza Crust

One day, I was craving pizza at midnight. All the pizza stores were closed at that time. So, I decided to take the matter into my own hands and make it all by myself. I ended up making the whole pizza. It was one of the best pizzas I ever had. The crust was the best thing about it.

To make homemade pizza dough, add flour, yeast, sugar, salt, oil, and water to the bowl. Mix it and knead it until it is shiny and smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise. Then, knead it and form small dough balls. Roll a dough ball into a 12-inch circle. Fold its sides and poke with a fork. Prebake it for 5 minutes. Then, add toppings of your choice and bake.
