Instructions
- In a large measuring cup combine the warm water, sugar and yeast and allow to poof 5 minutes.

- Divide the dough into 3 equal pieces to make 3 medium sized pizza's or leave whole to make one XL pizza. Roll pieces out to 12" circles or roll out one XL large pizza. Place into well greased baking pans; top with toppings in the order given and bake at 500° F for 8-10 minutes.
- NOTE: If making 3 medium pizzas, evenly divide the toppings onto all three pizzas.
