Step 1: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt until well combined. Add the water and 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons rosemary, 2 teaspoons thyme, lemon zest and crushed red pepper flakes.. With mixer on medium speed, mix until well combined then slowly add 1/4 cup flour and mix until dough begins to pull away from sides and begins to look smooth but will still be sticky.
Step 2: Sprinkle surface with remaining 1/4 cup flour and knead dough until smooth and no longer sticky. Shape dough into a ball and cover with a light kitchen towel.
Step 3: Preheat oven to 150°F then turn the oven off.. Butter or grease a 10”-12” cast iron skillet. Roll dough to size of skillet and fit into skillet. Cover dough again with light kitchen towel and place inside warm oven for 20 minutes.
Step 4: After 20 minutes remove skillet and set in a warm, draft-free place. Preheat oven to 400°F. Using the handle of a wooden spoon or your fingertips, poke indentations in dough.
