I wanted to eat a fluffy and chewy American type pizza like the pizza from the Costco food court. Once I made pizza dough using soy milk and it was chewy and delicious. So based on that, I came up with this recipe after several experiments.
According to my family, this pizza dough is the best one ever.

Proof temperature was 28℃.
Be sure to not let the dough dry out.
By preheating the baking tray, it helps making the dough more fluffy and the bottom side well-baked and crispy.
The standard baking time is 9~10 minutes for pizza with a few toppings like with Margherita-style pizzas, and 10~12 minutes for pizzas with a lot of toppings. For 3 pies, each 25~30 cm [11.8 in] in diameter. Recipe by Homard Ebiko

Steps

1

(Use room temperature water in summer, lukewarm water in winter.) Put all the ingredients except olive oil in the bread maker and start kneading the dough.
2

You don't need to rest the dough for the 1st proofing. Take the dough out from the bread maker and divide into 3 portions. Coat your hands with oil and round off each piece into a smooth ball. Place them in a greased container and let them rise for 90 minutes.
3

Gently take the dough out from the container using a spatula and dust both sides with a generous amount of bread flour. Flatten it with your hands, not squeezing the edges, and place it on a sheet of aluminum foil or parchment paper.
4

Add your favorite toppings. Preheat the oven with the baking tray inside (this is important!) to 250℃, and bake for 10~20 minutes.
