Baked

I use my bread machine to do all the grunge of making the dough for this recipe. Keeps the kitchen clean too.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water, plus
3 tablespoons lukewarm water
5 tablespoons oil (I like safflower)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon bread machine yeast
2 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons garlic powder (optional)
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
diced green onion
diced tomato
sliced black olives
sliced mushrooms
sliced green pepper
diced jalapeno pepper
cooked crumbled bacon
grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Dough: Put the 1 1/2 cup water in the bread machine.
  • Add the other ingredients in this order: sugar, salt, oil, flour, yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano and black pepper.
  • Place bread machine on dough setting and start.
  • Note the amount of time your bread machine will take and set another timer for this amount (or do it manually, I use the timer on my microwave for for this).
  • As soon as the dough forms a ball (several minutes) add the 3 tbsp lukewarm water.
  • This amount of flour is more than most bread machines can handle, so check every 10 minutes when it is not actively mixing.
  • If it's getting too high, just stop the dough cycle and restart it (this is why the other timer is needed).
  • At the end of the time (on my machine it is 130 minutes) turn off the bread machine and remove the dough.
  • Grease a large pizza pan (or a large rectangular cookie sheet with sides, or 2 small pizza pans) and turn the dough out on it (I usually put a bit of oil or cooking spray on my hands so It doesn't stick to me).
  • Spread the dough evenly on the pan, making it higher on the edges of the pan for a crust.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until double.
  • About 15-20 minutes.
  • Toppings: Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano and garlic powder.
  • Add as many optional toppings as you wish (invent some if you wish).
  • Sprinkle with parmesan.
  • Bake until golden about 15-20 minutes at 350°F.
