Speedy pizza dough recipe suitable for thinner crusts. Makes enough dough for two pizzas!
You'll need...
4½ teaspoons yeast
½ teaspoon sugar
1½ cups water (120 degrees)
3½ cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
Pizza sauce
Shredded cheese (a combination of mozzarella and cheddar is nice)
Toppings of your choice
Here's what to do...
Measure 2¼ c flour into a stand mixer bowl then mix in the yeast.
Stir in sugar and water and let the dough sit in the bowl for 15 minutes.
Add salt and remaining flour (about 1¼ cups) and knead for a few minutes with the dough hook.
Cut dough in half and roll each half into a ball.
Place each ball of dough on a lightly greased pizza pan. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
Heat the oven to 500°
For each pizza, spread the dough evenly on the pan.
Spread sauce, cheese and toppings on the dough.
Bake each pizza on pan until crust is lightly browned (8-10 minutes). If the top gets brown before the bottom does, you can slide the pizza off the pan and onto the oven rack for a minute, but watch it closely!
