Kitchenaid Pizza Dough Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed mixer bowl. Add salt, oil and 2 1/2 cups flour. Attach bowl and dough hook to mixer. Turn to speed 2 and mix about 1 minute. (Never mix a yeast dough over speed 2.)
• 2. Continue on speed 2, adding remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time and mix for about 2 minutes or until dough clings to hook and cleans sides of bowl. ) If dough climbs hook, this indicates that more flour is needed earlier in the mixing process. Then, knead on speed 2 for 4-5 minutes longer.
• 3. Place dough in greased bowl, turning once to coat. Cover with Saran wrap. Let rise in a warm place, free from drafts for about 1 hour or until doubled in bulk. (I turn my oven on to 200 degrees and set it on potholders on top of the stove.)
• 4. Lightly oil a 16" pizza pan. Sprinkle lightly with yellow cornmeal. Spread dough on pan, top with desired toppings and bake at 400-425 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. (Original recipe said 450, but I thought that was too hot.)
• 5. *Optional- Use garlic infused olive oil to brush on crust just before serving.

• Mix dough on medium speed for 5-7 minutes until it is elastic and smooth.
• Remove dough ball from mixer and place in an oiled bowl large enough for the dough to double in size.Cover bowl with a damp cloth and allow dough to rise in a warm place, away from drafts.
• When dough is doubled in size (15-20 minutes), remove from bowl and punch down dough, roll out to desired thickness and shape.
• Drizzle Olive Oil on rolled out dough, sprinkle with additonal Dried Oregano and Kosher Salt, and top as desired.
• Bake on a perforated pizza pan in a very hot (500 degree) oven. Start pizza on bottom rack for 5 minutes. Using a pizza peal, slide the peal underneath the pan and move the pizza to the oven's top rack. Continue baking until crust is browned, and toppings are heated (5-7 minutes more).
• Using the pizza peal, remove the pizza pan from the oven carefully. Place pan on a heat proof surface, then use the pizza peal to remove the pizza from the pan. Allow pizza to cool for 2 minutes on the peal, then slice as desired using a pizza cutter.
