We have pizza about twice a month. We all love pizza and I can change most of the toppings to suit my mood and the contents of the fridge. I was doing a pizza dough a while back and thought “this is a lot of work for what it is”. Read more Went looking for simple pizza dough recipes and found three Bread Machine recipes. They were very similar but, I thought, each had different good and bad points. I combined them and This is the result. We all know flour is finicky stuff. I live in the tropics, where it’s humid and I always have to use a bit more flour or a bit less liquid than a recipe calls for. The amount of flour and liquid used in this recipe has not been adjusted for any climate. Adjust for your climate and the weather. Obviously, you can do this by hand, in a bread machine or with the dough hooks on a stand mixer. I use my pasta maker as it’s easier to clean. This recipe is for a 1 extra large thin crust or 1 large thick crust pizza. The results were as good as any pizza crust I’ve ever made. See less

How to make it
- 1. Put the ingredients in your bread machine (or stand mixer) pan in the order the machine instructions call for. Usually this is liquids first, then flour, sugar, salt, etc. and yeast last.
- 2. Set the machine to make dough. This usually just mixes and then kneads the ingredients.
- 3. When your bread machine is finished kneading, etc., let the dough rest in the pan and rise a bit, about 30 minutes.
- 4. Remove the dough from the pan, punch it down, place it on a lightly floured board and roll it out slightly larger than the size you want.
- 5. Move it to an oiled pizza pan or stone and turn the extra dough under itself, and pinch in place, to form a lip or raised edge.
- 6. Cover and let rise for about 30 minutes.
- 7. While you’re waiting, get all your topping stuff ready; slice, dice, grate, etc.
- 8. When the dough has rested 30 minutes turn on the oven to 425° F (220° C).
- 9. Put the sauce, cheese and toppings (homemade or store bought) on your pizza crust and bake for about 20-25 minutes or till nicely done and sizzling on top.
- 10. Remove from the oven, let rest 5 minutes, slice and serve.
