Homemade Pizza Dough |

|
Make your own pizza dough.
Ingredients
- 2-1/4 tsp. yeast
- 1 cup very warm water
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 2 Tbsp. oil (i like olive oil)
- 2 1/2 cups of flour
Directions
Mix yeast in warm water and add all remaining ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon. When flour is mixed in, lightly knead the dough. Set aside to rest about 5 to 10 minutes in a greased bowl or on a greased baking sheet. Assemble your favorite pizza toppings. With your hands, stretch and pat pizza dough to fit the baking sheet. The smaller the pan, the thicker the crust will be. Or divide it and make 2 thin crust pizzas. Bake in a 425 degree F oven for 12 minutes. Let cool for a couple of minutes before slicing. To avoid damaging your baking sheet, remove pizza to a large cutting surface. I use Dollar Store cutting board sheets. Enjoy.
I buy name brand part skim mozzarella when it goes on sale and use pasta sauce instead of pizza sauce. Chopping the pepperoni makes it go further.

I don't make mine home made but I discovered that Betty Crocker makes a great bag mix that is super easy and about 60 cents a bag. One mix makes a thin crust pizza for our family of 4. (11/01/2006)

Jay's Signature Pizza Crust
Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 20 Minutes Ready In: 1 Hour 50 Minutes
Yields: 15 servings
"This simple pizza crust is chewy and soft, with a crispy exterior."
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
- In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and brown sugar in the water, and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Stir the salt and oil into the yeast solution. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of the flour.
- Turn dough out onto a clean, well floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Place the dough into a well oiled bowl, and cover with a cloth. Let the dough rise until double; this should take about 1 hour. Punch down the dough, and form a tight ball. Allow the dough to relax for a minute before rolling out. Use for your favorite pizza recipe.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). If you are baking the dough on a pizza stone, you may place your toppings on the dough, and bake immediately. If you are baking your pizza in a pan, lightly oil the pan, and let the dough rise for 15 or 20 minutes before topping and baking it.
- Bake pizza in preheated oven, until the cheese and crust are golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.
I got this recipe off of allrecipes.com, it is the best pizza dough recipe I have found. Give it a try you will love it. Hope you enjoy it!
