Directions

For the crust

Step 1. Stir together flour, yeast and salt. Add beer and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Mix until well combined. Cover the bowl and let sit at room temperature until the crust doubles in size, about 1–2 hours. (You can also let dough rise overnight in the refrigerator.)

Step 2. Flour your work surface and split dough into four equal pieces. Roll into crusts and place on a piece of parchment paper. Lightly drizzle each crust with olive oil. 

Step 3. Preheat oven to 500°F. Place a heavy sheet pan or pizza stone in the oven while it preheats. Place dough on heated pan and bake for 3–5 minutes, just until it starts to cook. Remove crust from oven and top with oil, garlic, sliced tomatoes and torn basil. Bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
