This dough is very easy to work with so if you're not a bread or pizza dough expert, this is a great recipe. It has a very nice consistency and tastes great too. Recipe from The Pillsbury Cookbook. I made it with Pizza Sauce and Pizza Deluxe. Cooking and prep time excludes time for dough to rise.
Ingredients:
1 1/2-2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 package)
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon oil
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine 3/4 cup flour, salt, sugar, and yeast and blend well.
2. In a small saucepan, heat water and oil until very warm (120 to 130) and add to flour mixture.
3. Blend at low speed until moistened and beat 2 minutes at medium speed.
4. Stir in 1/2 to 3/4 cup of flour to form a stiff dough.
5. On a floured surface, knead in 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup flour until dough is smooth and elastic (about 3 to 5 minutes).
6. Place dough in greased bowl and cover loosely with plastic wrap and a towel.
7. Let rise in warm place (80 to 85 degrees) until light and doubled in size (30 to 40 minutes).
8. Punch down several times to remove all air bubbles.
9. Prepare as directed in Pizza Deluxe or for your favorite pizza recipe.
