Bread Machine Pizza Dough

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups water
  • 1-1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3-3/4 cups bread flour
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

Preparation

Step 1

Add ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Choose the dough cycle.


Remove dough and fit dough into pizza pans, forming a 1-inch thick edge.


Brush with a little olive oil or vegetable oil, then let the crust rise for 10 to 15 minutes. Spread with tomato sauce or toppings of choice.

Bake pizza at 400° for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until crust is browned and cheese is melted and bubbly. Makes 2 to 3 12-inch pizzas, depending on the thickness of the crust, or one thick-crust 12-inch deep-dish pizza. If you're only making 1 pizza, shape the remaining dough into 1 or 2 balls, wrap in plastic wrap, and freeze.
