Pizza Dough
Tried and true pizza dough recipe. This makes three 14 inch pizza or two half sheet pan pizzas.
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cup water
- 2 Tablespoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 Tablespoon yeast
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add water, sugar, salt, yeast, and oil. Mix on low for about a minute.
- Add 3 cups flour, mixing on the lowest speed until combined. Add another cup of flour and mix.
- Add just enough of the last cup of flour to make the dough not very sticky anymore. It should come together in a nice ball and you should be able to touch it without the dough sticking all over your hands.
- Divide the dough into three even balls. I like to use a kitchen scale to get them even, but you can eyeball it if you don’t have a scale.
- Oil your counter and place the dough balls far enough apart that they have room to rise. Lightly oil the tops of the dough balls and cover very lightly with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, about an hour or so.
- Spray 3 pizza pans with nonstick cooking spray. Flatten the risen dough balls into circles that fit on your pizza pans. Top with sauce, cheese, and your favorite toppings. Bake at 500 °F for 12 minutes.
