- 1 ½ cups warm water (110°F)
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by combining warm water and active dry yeast in a bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

- Knead the dough by hand or with a mixer for about 5 minutes until smooth.

- Top with minced garlic and grated parmesan, drizzle with olive oil, and gently press toppings into the dough.
