water                                  1 cup
olive or vegetable oil            2 tablespoons
salt                                     3/4 teaspoon

Bread Machine Yeast          2 teaspoons

Directions:

Add water, oil, salt, bread flour, cheese, basil, and yeast to bread machine pan in that order an select dough/manual cycle. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle.

Place a pizza peel or a greased pizza pan on the counter and sprinkle with cornmeal. Roll dough out to the desired thickness place on the pizza peel or pat dough into the pizza pan. Build your pizza with your favorite ingredients, sauce first then meat and veggies and finally top with cheese. If you are using a pizza stone sprinkle it with cornmeal to help prevent the dough from sticking to the stone. Transfer the pizza to the preheated oven and bake at 450 to 500 for 8 to 15 minutes or until done. Pizza is done when edges of crust are golden and cheese is bubbly. Makes 1 or 2 pizzas.
