Quick and Easy Pizza Crust
A great pizza dough recipe when you don't want to wait for the dough to rise. You just mix it and allow it to rest for 5 minute. It yields a soft, chewy crust. I recommend bread flour and bake it on a pizza stone, all-purpose flour will work well too. The last time I made this recipe I used all-purpose flour because I was out of bread flour and it turned out great.

Ingredients
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 cup hot tap water
2 1/2 cups flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.

Stir in flour, salt and oil. Beat until smooth. Let rest for 5 minutes.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat or roll into a round. Transfer crust to a lightly greased pizza pan or baker's peel dusted with cornmeal. Spread with desired toppings and bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let baked pizza cool for 5 minutes before serving.
I use EVOO but have used peanut oil when I was out of olive oil.
