Recipe: Easy Homeade Pizza Dough

Summary: Make it a great night, when you make your own homeade pizza dough!

Ingredients

  1. 1/1 Cup Warm Water
    1 Packet/Envelope of Dry Active Yeast
    2 1/4 Cup All Purpose Flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions

  1. Combine the yeast and warm water in a small bowl. Let yeast and water mixture stand for about ten minutes until milky or cloudy.
  2. Combine flour and salt in a food processor.
  3. Add olive oil and yeast mixture to the flour mixutre in the food processor.
  4. Using pulse, blend the mixture just until dough forms.
  5. Remove dough from food processor and place on a floured surface, kneading dough (folding one edge into the middle and pressing down, turn dough and repeat) for about one minute..
  6. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into two equal pieces. Place each dough section into a separate bowl that has been oiled with olive oil, so it will not stick. Cover each bowl with plastic wrap and put somewhere warm for about one hour. Dough will almost double in size.
  7. Remove one dough and push down in center, removing air bubble. Knead dough about 5 times and place back in bowl. Repeat this with second dough.
  8. Place dough back in bowls and cover again. Let stand for about 35 more minutes.
  9. Remove each dough and knead separately about 5 times to remove air pockets.
  10. Using your fingers, working on a floured area, push dough out from center to create a 6 to 8″ circle with the dough. Work with hands (or roller) to thin dough out to about 8 to 12 inch pie.
  11. Add your favorite toppings!!!

Note: A pizza stone works best in a very hot oven.  The trick to making a great pizza is to use a high oven temperature, like 450 degrees and cook pizza for about 8 to 12 minutes, until cheese is brown and bubly.
