Homemade Pizza Crust
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups hot water
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 4 - 4 1/2 cups flour I use whole wheat, but you can use white or a mixture of white and wheat
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Put everything in the bread maker on the dough setting. If you want to use a mixer, combine all the wet ingredients, add the yeast, salt, Italian seasoning, garlic and then add flour until you reach your desired consistency. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, a little longer if you are using whole wheat flour. Let rise until doubled.
- After your dough has risen (or your dough cycle has finished in the bread maker), take your dough and roll it into your desired pizza shape. For thin crust pizza roll the dough very thin.
- Add sauce, cheese, and toppings.
- Bake at 425 about 15 minutes or until crust turns golden brown.
Notes
If you want to freeze your pizza bake your crust (without toppings) for about 6 minutes at 400 degrees. Once the crust has cooled add toppings and then wrap and freeze.
