2.5 teaspoons of quick or instant yeast

Combine the flour and yeast. Mix to blend ingredients. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until it comes together as a ball. Knead the dough for 6-9 minutes until dough becomes smooth and forms a ball.
Cut the dough into 10 equal portions. Roll each into a ball. Place on a sheet pan prepped with a nonstick spray. Cover the balls with a damp cloth for 30 minutes.

Gently lift the ovals from the sheet pan and place directly on the pizza stone. Cook for 5-6 minutes. Cook in batches depending on the size of the pizza stone.
