Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe (1)


Have you ever made Homemade Pizza Dough?

Pizza nights are always the best night of the week in our house!

My husband grew up throwing pizzas in his Aunt and Uncles pizza shop, so he always loves to show off his moves!

As for me I will stick to a rolling pin with a stretch and shape technique to keep the dough from landing on the ceiling or in my hair!

This dough's chewy yet crisp around the edges and holds up well to toppings.

Best of all it's so easy to make.

Most of the time I make the dough the night before and allow it to rest in the fridge for the next day.

This dough makes 2 large pizzas so if you aren't feeding a football team like our house feel free to divide the dough in half and refrigerate half forcalzonesor hot pockets for a day or two later.

Just in case you are wondering about the tasty recipe for the Broccoli Ham And Cheese Pockets pictured above I will be posting that tomorrow!

Place dough in a bowl oiled with olive oil to rise in a cool place for 1 1/2-2 hours or until doubled in size.

Divide dough into 2 large pizzas or 6 individual pizzas or calzones and shape into round balls.

Cover dough with a cool damp towel or plastic wrap and allow to rest for 30 minutes. (At this point dough can be refrigerated for later use.)

Shape dough to desired size and place in a lightly greased pan, brush dough with olive oil, add desired toppings and bake in a 450 degree oven until brown around the edges 12-15 minutes.
