For a crispier crust, preheat a pizza stone in the oven before baking. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can knead the dough by hand on a lightly floured surface for 10-12 minutes. For a richer flavor, substitute honey for the sugar. The dough can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bring to room temperature before using.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, whisk together the all-purpose flour, bread flour, sugar, and salt. Pour in the canola oil, olive oil, and the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed until the dough comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl (5 minutes).
