It is light, easy to digest, and friendly to anyone keeping an eye on their food choices. In other words: pizza you can actually make on a weeknight.

Why this version works

Skipping yeast means zero proofing and a faster route to that golden, crunchy edge. A short 10-minute rest keeps the dough pliable, so it rolls out into a super-thin base that cooks evenly and snaps just right.

What you need

Dough:
250 g wheat flour, sifted
100 ml warm water
1 egg
2 tbsp vegetable oil
0.5 tsp salt
0.5 tsp sugar

Classic topping:
150 g tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes
150 g firm cheese (think mozzarella or a Russian-style hard cheese), grated
50 g pepperoni or boiled sausage
1 small tomato
5-6 pitted olives
A pinch of dried oregano
A few fresh basil leaves (optional, for finishing)

How to make it

1. Mix the dough (5 minutes). In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, egg, vegetable oil, salt, and sugar. Gradually add the sifted flour and knead until you have a smooth, elastic dough that does not stick to your hands. Shape it into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 10 minutes. That quick pause makes the dough more cooperative when you roll it out.
2. Prep the toppings. Slice the tomato into thin rounds. Cut the olives into rings. Slice the pepperoni or sausage into thin matchsticks. Grate the cheese on the coarse side.
3. Heat the oven to 220 C. On a floured surface, roll the dough into a circle about 2-3 mm thick for a classic thin base. Transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment.
4. Assemble. Spread the tomato sauce over the base, leaving a small border. Layer on the sausage, tomato slices, and olives. Shower it with the grated cheese and finish with a light sprinkle of dried oregano.
5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges turn golden and the cheese melts and bubbles. Check the crust: it should feel crisp.

Finish with basil leaves, slice, and serve hot while the cheese still stretches and the kitchen smells like a pizzeria. Dinner: handled.
