Ingredients: 1 package Rapid Rise yeast; 2 cups of Bread Flour (if using All-Purpose flour, which will yield a denser, more rustic crust, increase flour to 2 1/4 cups); 2 tbsp sugar; 1 tsp salt; 1 tbsp olive oil; ¾ cup warm water (105-110 degrees); 1 cup crushed tomatoes (Our current favorite is Muir Glenn’s “Organic Crushed Tomatoes with Basil and Garlic”); 8 ounce ball of fresh mozzarella; Fresh organic basil – a dozen leaves or so; Additional salt, pepper, and olive oil for topping
