Jamilah's Basic Dough Recipe

I had to post this dough recipe separate because it's now my favorite dough. Use for all your pies and pizza's.

• Ready In: 13 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 1 bread dough

Ingredients

• 1 (7 g) packet dry active yeast
• 1⁄4 cup warm water
• 1  teaspoon sugar
• 3 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus
• 2  tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1  egg
• 1 1⁄4 cups  warm milk

Directions

1. Dissolve the sugar in the ¼ cup water. Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let ferment and bubble.
2. In a large bowl combine the yeast, flour, salt, olive oil, egg, and warm milk. Knead until a soft dough is formed. Dough will be slightly sticky, so always make sure your hands have a little olive oil on them.
3. Lightly grease the same bowl with olive oil. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a clean cloth and leave in a warm dry place for at least 2 hours, until doubled.
