Method
 

How to Make Sourdough Pizza Dough
  1. In a large bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, room temperature water, and olive oil. Whisk until frothy, about a minute.
  2. Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet mixture. Stir until well combined and forms a shaggy dough, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm area for 4-6 hours until doubled.
  5. Once risen, punch down the dough, divide into two balls, and shape as desired.
  6. Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out each ball, add toppings, and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

For best results, ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly. A slightly sticky shaggy dough is ideal during kneading.
