Yeast pizza dough

Description

The pastry is simple and quick to prepare. You can buy ready-made pizza dough, but I prefer to make it myself. For the filling, you can use your favorite ingredients, sauce, and cheese. This dough can be prepared in advance and stored in the freezer. The pizza will turn out soft, yet with a crispy crust. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
