Easy Real Pizza Dough
There are definitely those who believe that the crust is the best part of the pizza. Not me. I love the toppings, and I only consider that crust as a vehicle to get the toppings to my mouth.
Don’t get me wrong, if the crust doesn’t taste good; the entire pie is a waste. That doesn’t mean that I care if it’s been slow fermenting for 2 days before I asked for my pepperoni and jalapeno.
This dough recipe is quick and easy. You can have a pizza or Hungarian langos within 1 hour, from start to finish.
Ingredients
Olive oil or nonstick cooking spray
2 cup all-purpose flour
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
⅔ cup warm water (105°F to 115°F)
Directions
Coat a medium bowl with olive oil or cooking spray. In a food processor combine the next four ingredients (through salt). With the food processor running, add 1 Tbsp. olive oil and the warm water. Process until a dough forms. Remove and shape into a smooth ball. Place dough in the prepared bowl; turn once to coat dough surface. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let stand in a warm place until double in size (35 to 50 minutes).
