Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water for about 15 minutes until the yeast blooms.
In a mixer with dough hook combine on low speed the yeast mixture, flour, 1T salt, 1/2 C olive oil.
Once the dough has come together continue to knead 5 to 6 minutes on medium speed until the dough is soft and smooth. Sprinkle a little additional flour if the dough is really sticky and tacky.
On a clean, lightly floured surface turn out the dough and knead by hand 1 or 2 times. If dough is very sticky and tacky add a sprinkle of flour.
Coat the inside of the mixing bowl lightly with olive oil and return the dough to the bowl to rise covered with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.

Turn the dough over to coat the other side with the oil. Continue to stretch the dough to the pan. As you stretch spread your fingers out and make finger holes all the way through the dough.
Place the dough in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
