SUPER FAST AND EASY PIZZA DOUGH/ CRUST



Super Fast and Easy Pizza Dough/ Crust image

A recipe from Fleischmann's. Always good. You can substitute 1 cup of whole wheat flour for one cup of the white flour. You can add in some parmesan cheese if you'd like. Or, you can replace 1/2 cup of cornmeal for 1/2 cup of the flour. Have fun experimenting.

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA DOUGH



Quick and Easy Pizza Dough image

Making pizza dough from scratch is no doubt a labor of love-but that doesn't mean it can't be fast and easy too. Just 30 minutes after forming and resting the dough, you can use it as the base for this classic pie, or get creative and make something like this tri-color salad pizza or an antipasto-inspired slice.

Time 40m

Yield Makes 1 pound

Number Of Ingredients 6

2/3 cup warm water (110°F)
1/4 ounce active dry yeast (not rapid rise; 2 1/4 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing

Steps:

  • Combine water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add flour, salt, and oil, and stir until a ragged dough forms. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface.
  • Knead with floured hands until dough is smooth, elastic, and tacky but no longer sticky, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl brushed with oil, turning dough to evenly coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes.

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA CRUST

This is a great recipe when you don't want to wait for the dough to rise. You just mix it and allow it to rest for 5 minutes and then it's ready to go!! It yields a soft, chewy crust. For a real treat, I recommend you use bread flour and bake it on a pizza stone, but all-purpose flour works well too. Enjoy!

FABULOUS FOOD'S PIZZA DOUGH



Fabulous Food's Pizza Dough image

I found this on FabulousFoods.com and it is The Best pizza dough I've made yet. I just love that you make it all in your food processor with practically zero mess! Perfectly textured, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside without being bread-like. It's from Cheri and was made by her in a year-long friendly competition for the best dough. I'm not very familiar with the website, but I've been trying to find the best dough for months and so far, this is it! I'm reposting it here for safe-keeping! Cheri calls for 2 3/4 cups bread flour and 1/2 cup of semolina flour, but you can also (as I did) just use 3 1/4 cups of plain old white flour. Still awesome. The dough is sticky, don't be alarmed, just slather some EVOO onto your hands and you're set! Makes 2 medium pizza doughs.

Time 1h25m

Yield 2 medium pizzas, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups very warm water
2 teaspoons yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
16 ounces about 2 3/4 cups bread flour (or plain white flour)
3 1/2 ounces semolina flour (or plain white flour)
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place very warm water, yeast and sugar in food processor and pulse once or twice to mix. While most recipes will tell you to use lukewarm water when making yeast dough, I find that by the time you take hot water, put it into a measuring cup and then into a food processor, it has cooled significantly. I always use water that is almost too hot to the touch, and have always had great luck with this dough. Let sit while you measure out the dry ingredients.
  • After 2-3 minutes you will see small bubbles forming in the liquid in the food processor, which indicates that your yeast is working. Dump in the dry ingredients and turn on the food processor. The machine will go all the work, including the kneading. After about a minute the dough should form into a ball going around in your food processor. Open the machine and take a look. If you think the dough is too wet, you can add a bit a flour, but know that too wet is better than too dry, and the dough will loose some of its stickiness as it rises.
  • Place about a tablespoon of olive oil in a large bowl. Take the dough out of the food processor (putting a little olive oil on your hands will keep it from sticking) and form it into a ball. Place in the bowl and turn to lightly coat with the olive oil. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let dough rise in a warm, draft free place for about an hour or until doubled in size, before rolling out and baking. For a crust with a perfect pizzeria taste and texture, I recommend baking on a pizza stone in a very hot oven (500 - 550°F for about 10 -12 minutes.
