In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the bowl with the flour. Stir until a shaggy dough begins to form.

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes.

Form the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl, covering it with plastic wrap or a towel. Let it rise in a warm spot for 1 hour.

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) during the last 15 minutes of rising.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release excess air. Divide it into four equal portions and roll each into a ball.

On a floured surface, use a rolling pin to flatten each dough ball into your desired pizza shape.
