Prepare your workspace: Clear a counter, and gather a mixing bowl, measuring cups, and a kitchen towel.
Mix ingredients: In a bowl, combine flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Gradually add warm water and olive oil. Stir until the dough begins to form.
Knead the dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead it for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Proof the dough: Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise for 1-2 hours in a warm place until it doubles in size.
Shape the dough: Once risen, press the dough gently to remove air. Divide into portions, roll into balls, and shape into pizza bases using your hands or a rolling pin.
