Not rolling or stretching the dough properly

Once your dough is prepared, you'll need to roll it out and knead it to provide the ideal surface for your toppings. But it's important to know how to stretch or roll the dough. Depending on the style of crust you want, you can stretch or roll your dough, says Kitchen Seer. Rolling your dough, for instance, will result in a thinner crust, whilst stretching the dough will result in the fluffier dough. Everything relies on the final appearance of your crust once you remove it from the oven.

However, be careful not to overwork your dough by rolling or stretching it too much, since this might make it much harsher than anyone would like. For instance, exercise caution when using a rolling pin. Never completely remove the air bubbles from the dough since the final product will be excessively dense and tough. Reduce rolling as much as possible to preserve some air bubbles and ensure that the dough emerges perfectly fluffy.
