This is an excellent crust that requires no time to rise. Why order out when you can just throw this pizza together?

1 pizza crust (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (1/4 ounce) package yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)

  • 1 cup water
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine yeast and warm water.
  2. 2
    Stir until dissolved.
  3. 3
    Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
  4. 4
    Let rest 5 minutes.
  5. 5
    Roll out to size and shape you need.
  6. 6
    (I have used this same size recipe in jelly roll pans and on round baking stones.) Bake at 450* for 15 minutes or until golden.
  7. 7
    A couple tips: Sometimes I omit the sugar.
  8. 8
    Instead, I add several good shakes of Italian seasoning mix (just dried herbs).
  9. 9
    Use your imagination, this is hard to mess up.

    We Loved this crust. I always make my own and when I fell short on time I decided to give this a try. I omited the sugar and added garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Made one tasty deep dish pizza. I cannot believe I've been spendng so much time making dough when all I had to do was throw it all in the mixer. I needed for a few minutes and rested for about 10 minutes. Thak you for sharing this gem of a recipe!

    Very easy, quick recipe. I ended up with two thin 16" round and one thick 9"x13" crusts from doubling the recipe. I baked the crusts before adding toppings for 5 min at 450F to make sure it would be done in the middle. When baking the pizza, the edges tended to brown far before the middle. I used foil to protect the edges from burning and left the temp at 450F until the middle was golden brown. To make them crispy, I sprinkled cornmeal onto olive-oiled pans before spreading the crust.

    This recipe worked perfectly. I am thinking that maybe the reviewer who rated this recipe one star could have measured the water incorrectly because this dough does not come out like paste. It is a bit sticky(as most doughs are), but I kneaded it on a floured surface for just a few minutes and let it rest for 10 minutes afterwards. It worked very well on my 16-inch baking stone. I used recipe # 90229 for my topping. The crust rose slightly and browned very nicely. It tasted much better than any I have had from a pizza shop. This one is definitely a keeper for me. (This is a revised review to correct the recipe # for the topping I used)
