The ingredients for Maltese Pizza Crust are:

1/2 cup warm water
1-1/2 tbsp olive oil
2-1/4 tsp yeast (2.5 oz. packet)
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1-1/2 cup flour

Here is how you make Maltese Pizza Crust:

In large bowl, stir yeast into warm water. Add sugar and stir briefly, then let sit till bubbly (about 5 minutes); stir in olive oil. Add salt and flour (for a smoother dough, beat in the first 1/2 cup flour with a mixer). Knead on floured surface till smooth and elastic dough forms, adding additional flour as needed (usually takes 7 to 10 minutes). Return dough to bowl and coat lightly with a little more olive oil. In a warm, draft-free place let dough rise until doubled in size (usually takes 45 minutes to an hour). Punch dough down and roll out for 1 large thin crust pizza or two smaller thick crust pizzas. Prebake the dough at 400 degrees F for 5 minutes before topping. This is a very basic bread dough recipe with many applications. If you wish, you can make a loaf of bread out of the dough by placing it in a greased loaf pan after punching down; let it rise again for about 45 minutes and bake at 375 degrees for about 40 minutes till golden brown (or till it sounds hollow when tapped).
