1. 1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Make sure these are well combined to ensure even distribution of the leavening agent.

2. 2. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the sourdough discard, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and warm water into the bowl with the dry ingredients.

3. 3. Mix the Dough: Use a sturdy spoon or your hands to mix everything together until a shaggy dough forms. It might look a little messy at first, but keep going.

4. 4. Knead Briefly: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 2-3 minutes. This isn’t a traditional long knead; you’re just bringing the dough together until it’s smooth and elastic. It should be slightly tacky but not sticky.

5. 5. Prepare for Baking: Lightly grease a pizza pan or baking sheet with olive oil. Alternatively, you can use parchment paper for easy cleanup.

6. 6. Shape the Dough: Press or roll the dough out directly onto the prepared pan to your desired thickness and shape. A thinner crust will be crispier, while a thicker crust will be chewier. Aim for a 12-inch round or a rectangular shape to fit your pan.

7. 7. Add Toppings and Bake: Once your dough is shaped, add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings. Bake in a preheated oven at 450 F (230 C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted. The edges should look nicely browned and slightly puffed.

8. 8. Serve Immediately: Carefully remove the pizza from the oven, slice, and serve hot.
