How to make Kids pissaladiere

For the dough:
1) Combine the water, yeast, honey, and olive oil in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook. (If the bowl is cold, start with warmer water so it's at least 38°C when you add the yeast.) Add 450g of the flour, then the salt, and mix on medium-low speed. While mixing, add another 150g of flour, or just enough to make a soft dough. Mix the dough on medium-low speed for about 10 minutes, until smooth, sprinkling it with flour to keep it from sticking to the bowl.
