Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour mixture.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 8-10 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a cloth; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C) with a baking stone inside.

Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions.

Roll each portion into a round shape, about 1/4 inch thick.

Place the rolled dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, until puffed and lightly browned.

Remove from the oven and cover with a cloth to keep warm.
