Easy Pizza Dough

The key to a good pizza is the dough, and while making pizza dough seems like an easy excercise, it can sometimes be a frustrating task. This is an easy pizza dough recipe that should help start the foundation of a great pizza.

Easy Pizza Dough Ingredients:

3 cups all-purpose flour

1 package active dry yeast

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup warm water

2 tablespoons cooking oil

Easy Pizza Dough Steps

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups of flour, yeast and salt.

2. Add water an oil.

3. Beat with an electric mixer on low for 30-45 seconds.

4. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.

5. Remove from bowl and place on a lightly floured surface.

6. Knead in the remaining flour to make pizza dough that is smooth and fairly elastic (5-6 minutes of kneading)

7. Put the pizza dough back in a bowl and cover with a towel.

8. Put on a warm surface (top of the dryer works great for me) 30-60 minutes until the pizza dough slightly rises.

From there find your favorite pizza recipe for sauce and toppings.  My family loves the Roasted Pepper and Prosciutto Pizza.
