Frugal Friday Recipe: Fresh Pizza in 30 minutes!
I cannot for the life of me remember why I have not posted this, our favorite pizza recipe, and meal we serve to company the most (and eat the most) on this site yet. This is my most requested recipe and my credit goes to, Camp Berachah Fund Raising 30 minutes or less Italian cookbook (this is compliments of “mandy”).
Gather ingredients (and a helper if you want!)
1 Tbsp. active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees F.)
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups flour (we do 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white)
(optional add Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese and garlic powder or fresh garlic to the dough!!!
Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add the rest of the ingredients in and mix.
Dump onto a floured surface .
Knead into a smooth dough (five minutes or so).
Roll out and press down onto a greased pizza pan.
Add toppings. (Have fun and be creative with this! Our favorite variety is salsa or barbecue sauce, diced cooked chicken, and cheese.)
Bake at 450 degrees F. for around 12-15 minutes until the crust looks crispy and lightly browned.
By the way, you can make up a double or triple batch of the pizza crust dough and freeze the extras if you don’t need it. This speeds up the preparation even more as all you have to do is pull out a bag of dough and a bag of chopped cooked chicken in the morning and then put the pizza together right before you’re ready to eat. A double batch can be easily made in your kitchenaid!
Hi Amie,
There was no mention of rising time. Does this recipe require rising? Every other pizza dough recipe I’ve tried requires at least 30 min rise time. Thanks!
this is why I love this recipe Erin no rising time! It rises in the oven and turns out amazing!
Thanks for asking!
this is the best recipe ever! I use it ALL THE TIME. I love it.
