Pizza dough recipe
I've been experimenting for over a year now looking for the best pizza dough recipe. Once B gave my my KitchenAid mixer, I was able to find it.
Pair it with this pizza sauce recipe, and I can assure you you'll never want to buy pizza again.
Crusty pizza dough recipe
Taken from the Instructions and Recipes booklet from KitchenAid
Yield: 4 servings (1/4 pizza per serving)
1 package active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast)
1 cup warm water (105F to 115F)
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp olive oil
2 1/2 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp cornmeal
Dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed mixer bowl. Add salt, olive oil, and 2 1/2 cups flour. Attach bowl and dough hook to mixer. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about 1 minute.
Continuing on Speed 2, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, and mix until dough clings to hook and cleans sides of bowl, about 2 minutes. Knead on Speed 2 about 2 minutes longer.
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft, about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down.
Brush 14-inch pizza pan with oil. Sprinkle with cornmeal. Press dough across bottom of pan, forming a collar around edge to hold toppings. Add toppings as desired. Bake at 450F for 15 to 20 minutes.
