Description
A quick and easy no-yeast pizza dough recipe that creates a soft, slightly chewy crust and a crisp, golden base perfect for your favorite toppings. Ideal for busy days when you want homemade pizza in under an hour.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This is your dry base for the pizza dough.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the warm water and olive oil.
- Stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon or spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. This step develops the gluten for a good pizza dough.
- Shape the dough into a ball. You can use it immediately or cover it and let it rest for 10-15 minutes for easier handling.
- Preheat your oven and pizza stone or baking sheet according to your pizza recipe.
- Roll or stretch the pizza dough to your desired thickness and shape.
- Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings.
- Bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Notes
- For a crispier crust, roll the dough out thinly.
- You can substitute whole wheat flour for half of the all-purpose flour for a healthier option.
- This dough is also great for calzones or stromboli.
