Everyone loves a good pizza. Unfortunately, a good pizza crust recipe is hard to find. Luckily, I have finally found one that I can’t wait to share! I also got this recipe from my grandmother; it is the only recipe for pizza crust she has ever liked. I remember when I was a child begging her to please make pizza. She always complained that it took too long to make, but she usually would give in much to my delight. Hence, the only downside to this recipe is that it takes some extra time and planning in advance. However, the result is definitely worth it!
Ingredients for 1 crust:
- 1 package of active dry yeast
- ½ cup of warm water
- 1 ¼ to 1 ½ cups of all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- ¼ teaspoon of sugar
- pizza sauce
- cheese and other toppings
First, dissolve yeast into the warm water. Then stir in oil, salt, sugar, and half of the flour. The stir in remaining flours gradually until the dough is easy to handle. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes. Then place the dough into a greased bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes. Next, punch the dough down. At that time, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but not longer than 48 hours, punching the dough as necessary. Then grease your pizza pan and spread the dough evenly. Cover with your favorite sauce, cheese, and topping. Then place in the oven for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Serve and enjoy!
