Easy Homemade Mixing Bowl Pizza Dough Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 475 DEGREES F. Using a medium size bowl add the whole wheat and bread flour together. STIR TILL THE FLOURS ARE BLENDED TOGETHER.
• 2. Then scoop out ONE CUP of the flour mixture & add it to the mixing bowl, that has been equipped with a dough hook attachment. Now add in the 2 packages of yeast, sugar, salt, extra virgin olive oil, and begin slowly to mix.
• 3. Add in the hot water and increase speed till flour begins to blend together.
• 4. Gradually add in MOST OF remaining flour,(WILL NOT NEED ALL OF IT) with increased speed, and beat until mixture comes together and forms a soft ball of dough that is not sticky. SHOULD LOOK LIKE DOUGH IN PICTURE. With the addition of the whole wheat flour knead at least 6 or 7 minutes or so.
• 5. Remove from mixing bowl, then grease a medium size bowl with olive oil, add the ball of dough, and grease all sides of ball of dough. Then cover with a heavy dish towel to keep warm, and allow to rise while you prep the veggie toppings for the pizza. I LEFT BOWL ON STOVE TOP WHILE IT WAS PREHEATING TO ALLOW DOUGH TO RISE at least 15 minutes, I let mine rest for about half hour.
• 6. Cube the precooked sausage patties into cubes, until they resemble the ones in picture. YOU MAY WANT TO USE OTHER TOPPINGS, or no meat at all.
• 7. Chop remaining veggies and shred cheese if needed, and add to a large platter, till you are ready to top pizza.
• 8. Spray a long jelly roll size pan with cooking spray, and then dust lightly with the 2 tablespoons of yellow corn meal, then shake to coat the entire bottom of pan.
• 9. Now the pizza dough should be ready, it is at least double in bulk. Notice dough in step #5 and now in step #9 how much it rose in the bowl.
• 10. Now press dough out with fingers into pan, pushing out to the outer edge, and into corners, until the desired thickness is reached. Should look somewhat like the picture. NOW PLACE IN THE PREHEATED OVEN FOR 4 MINUTES ONLY, this is to assure that crust will not be soggy when it is completely cooked with added toppings.
• 11. After 4 minute time lapse, remove from oven, and add the pizza/pasta sauce, leaving about a 1 inch border on all sides NOT COVERED WITH SAUCE. Now sprinkle with Italian seasoning or oregano.
• 12. Top with topping ingredients as desired. I started with some of the mozzarella cheese first after adding the sauce, then added the sausage, peppers, cheddar cheese, and shredded gruyere cheese, can top with additional Italian Seasoning if desired before baking. NOTE: IF YOU WEIGH THE CRUST DOWN WITH TOO MANY INGREDIENTS, THE CRUST MAY BE SOGGY AFTER COOKING.
• 13. Place in preheated 475 degree F. oven and bake for 15 minutes or until cheeses has melted and toppings is hot and bubbly. Remove from oven.
• 14. Using a pizza cutter, cut into desired size slices, and serve immediately. I got about 15 nice size serving slices.
• 15. Enjoy and watch them come back for more. These detailed steps are for anyone that has been intimidated about making their own pizza crust & pizza before, especially my daughter Briana. Here's to you Briana, a NO FAIL APPROACH TO MAKING YOUR OWN HOMEMADE PIZZA. ENJOY WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cup (187.5 g) of flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
• Add olive oil and warm water and use a wooden spoon to stir well very well.
• Add any additional flour as needed, stirring until the dough is forming into a cohesive, elastic ball and is beginning to pull away from the sides of the bowl. The dough will still be slightly sticky but still should be manageable with your hands.
• Drizzle a separate, large, clean bowl generously with olive oil and use a pastry brush to brush up the sides of the bowl.
• Lightly dust your hands with flour and form your pizza dough into a round ball and transfer to your olive oil-brushed bowl.
• Allow dough to rise for 30 minutes or until doubled in size. If you intend to bake this dough into a pizza, I also recommend preheating your oven to 425F (215C) at this point so that it will have reached temperature once your pizza is ready to bake.
• Once the dough has risen, use your hands to gently deflate it and transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead briefly until smooth (about 3-5 times). Use either your hands or a rolling pin to work the dough into 12" circle.
• Use a fork to poke holes all over the center of the pizza to keep the dough from bubbling up in the oven.
• Add desired toppings and bake in a 425F (215C) preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until toppings are golden brown. Slice and serve.
