In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour mixture.
Stir until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
