SUPER THIN PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Weighing the flour and water is highly recommended as there are many factors that can affect the absorbent qualities of the flour.
• Mix flour, yeast, honey and salt in a food processor with a steel blade.
• Run the machine and add water and oil through the top, process for 30 seconds.
• You may need to add just a bit more water if the dough feels dry.
• Place the dough into a sealed container and refrigerate overnight.
• Set oven rack and pizza stone on lowest setting and preheat to 500 degrees.
• Remove dough from container and half.
• Place half on center of large sheet of parchment paper.
• Place large sheet of plastic wrap over dough and parchment.
• Allow dough to rise for 10 minutes.
• Roll the dough sandwiched between the parchment and plastic wrap trying to achieve an even thickness.
• The dough should be about 14 inches in diameter.
• Peel off plastic wrap and top as desired.
• Place the pizza with parchment on the pizza stone and bake for about 10 minutes.
• The parchment should slide out easily and allow for easy transfer to a cutting board.
• Let cool and serve.

THIN & CRISPY PIZZA

Steps:

• Make the dough: Put a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 450 degrees F. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the water and olive oil and mix to make a shaggy, sticky dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead into a smooth and elastic ball, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a flat disk. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and let rest in a warm place, 15 minutes.
• Brush two large sheets of parchment paper with olive oil. Place a ball of dough between the parchment, oiled-sides in; use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a 12- to 14-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Remove the top piece of parchment and transfer the dough (and the bottom piece of parchment) to a pizza peel or inverted baking sheet.
• Spread 1/3 cup sauce on the crust; scatter with 3/4 cup mozzarella. Slide the pizza (on the parchment) onto the hot stone. Bake until the crust is crisp and golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let cool 1 to 2 minutes before slicing. Repeat to make the second pizza.

THIN-CRUST PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast and sugar in hot water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast forms a creamy foam, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Mix 1 3/4 cup flour and salt in a large bowl. Pour in yeast mixture; mix well until dough comes together.
• Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth, adding remaining 1/4 cup flour if dough is too sticky, about 2 minutes. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a greased pizza pan.

THIN CRUST PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Mix warm water and sugar together in a bowl; add yeast. Set aside until yeast mixture becomes foamy, about 10 minutes.
• Pour yeast mixture into a large bowl; add flour, olive oil, and salt. Knead dough for 6 to 8 minutes, adding more flour to keep dough from sticking to your hands if needed. Cover bowl and let sit for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Grease 2 pizza pans or baking sheets.
• Divide dough in half. Make each half into a ball shape and roll each into a flat, circular crust using a rolling pin.
• Place 1 piece dough over your hands with your knuckles turned upward directly underneath the center of the dough. Using your knuckles and backs of your hands, toss the dough into the air in a circular motion, spinning the dough. This thins the center of the dough and forms the padded edge of the pizza. When the edge of the dough is about 1/4-inch thick, place the dough onto the pan. Pizza diameter will be about 10 inches. Repeat with other piece of dough.

• Stir in the very warm water and oil. Mix well.
• Add enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough.
• Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rise about 10 minutes.
• Lightly oil one 14" or two 12" round pizza pans. Sprinkle with cornmeal.
• Form dough into smooth ball(s). Roll dough to fit the pan(s).

THIN PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
• In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar into the warm water.
• Sprinkle the yeast on top of the water and let it rehydrate for about 5-8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium sized mixing bowl, mix the flour and salt.
• Stir the yeast in the water until dissolved, then pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture and blend.
• Pour out the dough onto the counter top and knead for about two or three minutes.
• Roll the crust out so it's about 12-14" in diameter (I roll mine out to about 1/4" thick) then poke it full of holes with a fork.
• Pre-bake the crust in the preheated oven on a pizza stone for four minutes. This gets the crust crispy all the way through (if you don't have a pizza stone, you can just use a pizza pan, though your crust won't be as crispy).
• With your pizza paddle, pull the crust out of the oven (or the whole pan if you're using a pan) and load it up with your sauce, veggies, cheese, whatever.
• Stick the pizza back in the oven for 8 more minutes.
• Let it cool for about 2 minutes, then enjoy.

THIN PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let proof for 5 minutes or until foamy. Can use rapid rise yeast.
• Stir in salt, oil, and 2 cups of flour. Mix well.
• Add 1 1/2 cups flour: stir until a sticky ball forms.
• Knead 5 minuted on flour surface until smooth and elastic. Coat with cooking spray, place in a bowl and cover.
• Let rise 30 minutes for thicker dough, and 2 hours for thinner dough.
• After rising time punch down. Thinner crust divide in half. If thicker crust use all of dough. let rest 10 minutes.
• Dust pizza pan with cornmeal. Flatten dough on pan; gently pulling and stretching to fit pan, if it resists let dough rest another 5 minutes.
• Brush with oil. Take a fork and pierce dough several times to keep dough from forming air pockets. Bake for 7 minutes.
• Take dough out and put you favorite topping on and then continue baking for another 7 to 10 minutes.
• If you want to make grilled pizza I usually make small individual pizzas that way everyone can add their own topping from an array of ingredients. Place flattened dough on grill for about 5 minutes flip and add all ingredients for pizza. cook until cheese is melted and bottom of crust is crispy.
