Whisk together the dry ingredients (except the yeast) and add them to the bowl of a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment. Add 1/2 cup of the flour mixture to a separate mixing bowl, whisk in the yeast and set aside.

Beat together the wet ingredients and add to the flour/yeast mixture. Stir to combine. Let rest for 30 minutes until the mixture has puffed up and is bubbly.

Add this liquid mixture to the dry mixer in the stand up mixer and beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Cover and let the dough rest for another 30 minutes.

While the dough is resting, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Once the dough has rested, pour some olive oil into the center of baking sheet and turn the dough out. Using wet hands, spread the dough until it's 1/4" thick. Bake for 18 - 20 minutes until it's starting to brown and slightly crispy.

Add toppings, return to the oven and bake for another 5 - 10 minutes unti the goat cheese has begun to soften. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes and romano cheese.

Enjoy!
