1 cup warm water
1 TBSP sugar
1 TBSP oil
1 tsp salt
about 3 cups flour
pound of bulk sausage (or whatever topping you want)
bag or so (2 cups plus) of mozzarella cheese
1 tsp. oregano
2 cans petite diced tomatoes
1/2-1 cup of Parmesan
Mix the warm water with the sugar, 2 TBSP of flour, and the yeast. Mix this and let it sit for 10 min or so to see if the yeast is working.
Then, mix in oil, salt, and at least two cups of flour. You're going for a stiff dough you can knead, which is still soft but not sticky (I usually need more than two cups). Keeping adding flour until you get this.
Put the bowl or some sort of plastic wrap over this and let it rise for 45 min to an hour.
Then, spread dough in your pizza pan. Put mozzarella on the dough, fairly heavy.
On top of the cheese, put your topping(s).
Then, put very well drained tomatoes on the toppings. Sprinkle with oregano and top with Parmesan.
Bake 425 15-20 min.
This is such a yummmmmmy dinner! I use honey instead of sugar and my yeasts always grow really happy! We've even made cheese bread out of the crust with garlic salt and cheddar cheese!
ReplyDeleteThe Kloberdanz family tried this dough recipe for our pizza night last week and it was a real hit! Very simple and easy to make, even for folks like me who don't make dough. :)
