Method
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, and salt.
- Pour in the warm water and olive oil. Mix with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 2 minutes.
- Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover it and let it rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes.
- Prepare your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once risen, gently punch down the dough and transfer it to the baking sheet, stretching it out to fit the pan.
- Cover the shaped dough again and let it rise for another 15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- After the second rise, drizzle more olive oil on top and sprinkle with coarse sea salt and any herbs desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
