This is my stock recipe for my personal pan sized pizzas which are about 6-7 inches in diameter. Each batch of dough makes 4 pizzas. The crust on these is crunchy, we don't like the thick pan style pizza here. Also, the thicker crusts don't bake up as well because the centers just don't heat as fast due to density. I make these 3 styles, Cheese, Pepperoni and 3 meat (pepperoni, Italian sausage and bacon crumbles which I buy at Sam's Club prepackaged). I think you'll like these, I get tons of orders for them. OH BUY SOME 8" CARDBOARD CAKE ROUNDS (available at most craft stores, and Walmart in the craft dept.) The pizzas need a hard surface to freeze on. So much better than store bought, you'll never go back.

Steps:
- Dissolve yeast and sugar in hot water, set aside and let sit for 8 minutes.
- In a large bowl mix flour and salt.
- Pour yeast mixture over flour mixture and mix well with a heavy wooden spoon.
- Turn out onto a floured surface, knead being careful to not add too much additional flour.
- After the dough starts to really pull together work in enough olive oil to get a good elastic dough that is easy to work.
- Work in the garlic, herbs and red pepper.
- Knead for about 2 minutes more.
- Divide into four equal parts, using a rolling pin to roll out into 6-7" circles, leave an edge or a crust around the edges so your toppings won't slide off.
- Sprinkle a pizza pan with cornmeal, place 2 pizza dough rounds on the pan and bake at 500 degrees for 5 minutes.
- Repeat with other 2 rounds.
- Allow to cool on the counter, for about 10 minutes.
- Top with pizza sauce and cheese. Ending with the herbs and pepper on the very top.
- Place on cardboard rounds and wrap tightly with plastic wrap.
- To bake after freezing, bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
