Amishway Homesteaders Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 OK so I made home-made Pizza Dough and I was thinking of 'trying' a new one? WELL there are tons out there! so what recipe do you use? Here is what I use now: 2 teaspoons yeast (1 packet) 1 cup warm water 1 Tablespoons vegetable oil 1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 cups flour Link to comment
Cat Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 This is the one I use and like best. Adding garlic powder and oregano to the dough really makes it good! And when you add a bit of oregano on top of the cheese, the aroma just brings people into your kitchen to EAT!!! QUICK AND EASY PIZZA DOUGH 2 1/2 - 3 c flour 1 pkg dry yeast (about 1 Tbsp) 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder (or to taste) 1 tsp crumbled oregano (or to taste) 1 c warm water 2 Tbsp oil Combine 1 1/2 c flour and rest of dry ingredients in bowl; stir in water & oil, beat at low speed of mixer for 1 1/2 minutes, scraping bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes at high speed. Stir in as much remaining flour as you can with a wooden spoon. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6-8 min. total). (THIN CRUST) Preheat oven to 425º F. Cover dough & let rest 10 minutes. Shape to fit greased pizza pans. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, until lightly browned. Bring out of oven, spread pizza sauce over top, top with desired ingredients, ending with cheese & a sprinkling of oregano. Return to oven; bake about 15 minutes more. (THICK CRUST) Place dough in a greased bowl, turn once to coat well. Cover dough and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hr). Punch down, divide in half (to fit 2 9” pizza pans). Cover; let rest 10 min. With greased fingers, pat dough into pans, forming edges. Cover; let rise until nearly doubled (30-45 min). Bake in a preheated 375º F oven for 20-25 minutes until lightly browned. Bring out of oven, spread pizza sauce over top, top with desired ingredients, ending with cheese & a sprinkling of oregano. Return to oven; bake about 20 minutes more. Let stand 5 min before serving. Link to comment
