Stir water, sugar, and yeast together in a large bowl until dissolved. Add olive oil and salt. Stir in 2 cups of the flour until well blended.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead 5 minutes, adding additional flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking. Let dough rest for 10 minutes.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

While dough rests, combine cheeses and spices in a bowl and set aside.

Pat dough onto a 16- to 18-inch pizza pan or baking sheet using fingers dipped in olive oil. (If a large pan is unavailable, divide the dough into two medium-size crusts.)

Top with pizza sauce and cheeses and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until cheese turns golden brown.
