Beer Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the pepperoni and bacon until evenly browned. Mix in the mushrooms, onion, and green pepper. Cook and stir about 5 minutes, until tender.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, mix the ingredients from the skillet with the tomato sauce and beer. Season with garlic, oregano, thyme, and salt. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 15 minutes, until slightly thickened. Spread over the 2 pizza crusts, and top with cheese.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
• Pour in the beer and mix well.
• The dough will be sticky.
• Spread a handful of flour on your work surface and dump the dough onto it.
• Tiss the dough around to coat it with flour and prevent it from sticking.
• Knead it 2 or 3 times to make it pliable.
• Shape the dough into a ball and divide it in two if you are making 2 thin crust pizzas.
• For a deep dish pie do not divide.
• Grease your pizza pan with oil and use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a circle.
• Brush crust with olive oil lightly and then add your sauce and toppings.
• Bake for 12- 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk to combine beer, 2 tablespoons olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast. Fit bowl on electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add flour, and mix until dough is fairly stiff, about 10 minutes.
• On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Brush the inside of a large bowl with remaining tablespoon olive oil; transfer dough to bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place until dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Punch down dough, and transfer to a clean surface. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, divide dough into quarters; keep covered with plastic wrap.

Steps:

• Mix and knead together all the ingredients - by hand, mixer or bread machine - until you've made a smooth, soft dough. Cover the dough, and allow it to rise for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 500F with a pizza stone (if you are using one) on a lower rack.
• Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a 10" to 12" round.
• Place the rounds on parchment paper, if you're going to use a pizza stone. Or place the dough on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Transfer the pizzas, parchment and all to the baking stone. Or place the pans in the oven. Bake for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, top as desired, and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the bottom crust is crisp and the cheese is bubbly and browned.
• Remove from the oven, and serve hot.
