30 Minute Pizza Crust Food

EASY 30 MINUTE PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix together 2 cups of bread flour, sugar, salt, and Fleischmann's® RapidRise™ Yeast.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm water. Using your hands, mix everything together until it forms a dough. The dough will be sticky, but don't worry, it will come together once you knead it!
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead the dough for 5 minutes or until the texture of the dough starts to smooth out. If the dough feels too sticky, add remaining ¼ cup flour in a tablespoon at a time until the dough is dry enough to work with. Form the dough into a ball and place into a greased bowl. Cover loosely with a dish cloth and put in a warm place to rise for just ten minutes.
• After ten minutes, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface. We like to do this on a piece of parchment paper for easy clean up and transport. Stretch out dough into a 12 inch round and place on pizza stone or baking sheet. Top with sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings you desire. Baked at 500° F for 10 minutes! Allow to cool before slicing and eating!

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in flour, salt and oil. Beat until smooth. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat or roll into a round. Transfer crust to a lightly greased pizza pan or baker's peel dusted with cornmeal. Spread with desired toppings and bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let baked pizza cool for 5 minutes before serving.

EASY PEASY 30-MINUTE PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• In a large bowl, place the warm water in first then the honey.
• Sprinkle the yeast on top, agitate the bowl slightly if you have to so the yeast gets immersed in the water. Wait 10-15 minutes or until foamy.
• Add the oil and salt.
• Blend in the flours and knead until elasticy, about 5 minutes or so.
• Cover with parchment paper or a dish towel and let rise for 20-30 minutes.
• Spray a cookie sheet, pizza stone, or round baking dish with cooking spray and put some dough in and you're set!
• I get about 4-5 8" mini pizzas out of this. Maybe more if I really rolled it out to make thin-crust.

QUICK PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Put the flour, yeast and salt in a food processor. With the machine running, pour the oil through the feed tube, then add the water in a slow, steady stream. Continue to process for 2 to 3 minutes (the dough should form a rough ball and ride around in the processor). The finished dough should be soft, slightly sticky and elastic. If too dry, add a bit more water; if too wet, a tablespoon or so more flour.
• Lay a 12-inch-long piece of plastic wrap on a clean work surface. Work the dough into a rectangle on the plastic, about 8 inches long and 6 inches wide. Press your fingers into the top of the dough all over, making indentations as though it were a focaccia. Fold the left third of the dough over (as you would a letter) and repeat the indentations. Fold the right third over and make the indentations again. Cover the folded dough with plastic wrap and let rise for 20 minutes.
• Cut the dough in half, form each piece into a neat ball, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer. The morning before you want to make pizza, transfer the dough to the refrigerator to thaw.
• Bring the dough to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Put a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 550 degrees. (If you don't have a stone, oil a rimmed baking sheet and set aside.) Dust a peel or the greased baking sheet generously with cornmeal. Working with the dough in your hands (not flat on a work surface), gently begin to stretch the dough into a circular shape, pressing your fist into the center of the dough and pulling at the edges with your other hand. With both hands, stretch the dough, being careful not to tear it. Working in a circular motion, pull the thicker edges of the dough outward, letting gravity help you. Continue to stretch the dough until it's relatively even in thickness (the edges will be thicker) and you have the size you want. Carefully lay it on the peel or baking sheet.
• Top the pizza as desired and either slide it off the peel and onto your heated stone, or place the baking sheet into the oven. Cook the pizza for 6 to 10 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

30-MINUTE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Lightly oil a pizza pan or pizza screen. If using a pan, sprinkle it lightly with cornmeal.
• Mix the yeast with 1 cup of the flour in a mixing bowl. Stir in the hot water and blend until no raw flour shows. Stir in a second cup of flour and the salt and mix quickly until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl.
• Dust work surface and hands with the third cup of flour and turn the dough out of the bowl. Knead in the remaining flour a little at a time, using a dough scraper to prevent sticking. Knead vigorously about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
• Press the dough into an 8-inch circle, then roll or stretch it to fit a 15- to 18-inch pizza pan. Add the desired toppings (spread the cheese on first) and finish with a drizzling of olive oil.
• Bake about 15 minutes until the crust is golden and the topping bubbly. Serve at once.

EASY 30-MINUTE PIZZA DOUGH II

Steps:

• In a large bowl, place the warm water in first then the honey.
• Sprinkle the yeast on top, agitate the bowl slightly if you have to so the yeast gets immersed in the water. Wait 10-15 minutes or until foamy.
• Add the oil and salt.
• Blend in the flours and knead until elasticy, about 5 minutes or so.
• Cover with parchment paper or a dish towel and let rise for 20-30 minutes.
• Spray a cookie sheet, pizza stone, or round baking dish with cooking spray and put some dough in and you're set!
• I get about 3-4 little pizzas out of this amount of dough; it's thicker than my other pizza dough recipe.
