Steps

• Mix the warm water and sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
• Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Punch down the dough and roll it out into a round shape on a floured surface.
• Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush the surface with olive oil.
• In a small bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes, red onion, olive oil, salt, and black pepper together.
• Spread the crumbled goat cheese evenly over the pizza dough. Top with the tomato and onion mixture.
• Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with torn basil leaves. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips

• For a crispier crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven before placing the rolled-out dough on it.
• Feel free to add other toppings such as sliced olives, roasted garlic, or arugula for extra flavor.
