In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Stir until dissolved, then sprinkle the yeast on top. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture is frothy.
Add the olive oil, salt, and half of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
Gradually add the remaining flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour as needed.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly greased bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough gently to release air. You can then roll it out using a rolling pin to your desired thickness and shape.
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and prepare a baking sheet or pizza stone.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to the baking sheet or pizza stone and add your favorite toppings before baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
