10 Minute Pizza Dough
Fresh pizza dough in just 10 minutes? Yep! This quick and easy recipe gives you homemade pizza without the wait—perfect for last-minute cravings.
Ingredients
- .25 oz envelope of highly active yeast
- 2 TBSP honey
- 1 ¼ cup water heated to 120-130 degree F
- 3 cups of bread flour + additional flour for the working surface and for dusting
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- 3 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- First, in a in a mixing bowl dissolve one .25oz packet of rapid rise yeast and honey in 120-130 F warm water.
- Let the mixture stand until creamy, about 5-6 minutes.
- I used my kitchen aid mixer, but you can also do this step by hand. If you are using a mixer attach the dough hook and slowly mix in 3 cups of bread flour, salt, and 3 TBSP of olive oil and mix until you have pizza dough. You may need to add up to ½ cup more of flour.
- Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
- The dough may be a little sticky, if so just add a little flour to your hands and place the dough on a floured working surface.
- Dust the dough with flour and knead a few times to smooth out the dough.
- Dust your rolling pin and roll your dough into any size and shape.
- *please note - before placing sauce and toppings on the pizza dough, pre-bake rolled pizza dough on foil for approximately 5 minutes @ 425 degree F or on a hot grill to stabilize the crust. Cooking times may vary between gas and electric ovens and the thickness of your desired dough.
Notes
My family prefers a thin and crispy crust, so I am able to get approximately four 10 inch pizzas out of this recipe. When cooking this pizza in the oven I cook the pre-baked pizza on foil for 15-20. Then remove the foil and cook the pizza directly on the oven rack for another 5 minutes for a crispy crust.
