This easy homemade recipe is the best pizza dough you'll ever try!

Homemade Pizza Dough

(250 ml) warm water

(5 ml) instant yeast

(5 ml) sugar

(300 g) all-purpose flour

(5 ml) salt

In a bowl, combine the water, yeast and sugar. Let stand until the mixture foams on top, about 5 minutes.

In a food processor, it is important to work with the plastic blade or the dough hook. Combine the flour and salt. Increase the speed to medium and add the yeast mixture until a soft ball forms.

Remove the dough from the bowl and knead for a few minutes on a floured surface to prevent sticking.

Place in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a clean cloth. Let the dough rise for about 30 minutes in warm and draft-free area. Cut the dough in half.

Use the pizza dough immediately or refrigerate it (less than 48 hours), otherwise place it in an airtight bag and freeze.

This recipe will make two 23-cm (9-inch) thin-crust pizzas or two 20-cm (8-inch) thicker crust pizzas.

Follow this recipe and you will have some pretty darned amazing dough. Thank you. My kids actually prefer pizza at home because of this recipe.

Wasn't impressed, I have made this twice, I followed the recipe to the "t", both times is was very tough. I wont make this again.

Made this dough just as the recipe calls for....it was absolutely delicious, dough turned out wonderful, thank-you 

Thank you.  This is as a light and tasty recipe.

I’ve made this nearly every Friday for a year now after trying countless other recipes.  It’s a simple reliable and delicious recipe. Obviously flour behaves differently with things like temperature and humidity fluctuations but I’ve never had to make much of an adjustment at all.

I followed this recipe to the letter and it turned out great!   I am a novice at making my own pizzas and I had no problem at all with this dough, it worked out perfectly!  I don't have a pizza stone, so I baked it in a pizza pan on the bottom grill of my oven.  I used the "convection bake" option at 450F for 20 minutes;  I had to remove it before the 20 minutes was up, so  will slightly reduce the time of baking next time.  The result gave us the type of crust we love, tasty and crispy!  Thank you Ricardo!

I have 5 children, and we all enjoy making and eating this pizza crust. We double the recipe and make it by hand, as it’s super easy to mix. For a little extra flavour we add a bit of garlic powder and rosemary to the mix. Super good!

I Have been using this recipe for about a year ( we have pizza pretty much every Friday night) and it amazing. So easy to make and turns out perfect every time !

Just started making Pizza this year (from scratch) and this was the first recipe I tried! This works great 

The summer before I went to university, I worked as a pizza maker at Pepe’s pizza In Mississauga, Ontario.   I had no idea what I was doing when I started, but Pepe, taught me how to stretch pizza dough.  Problem is, how to make that fabulous dough.

Segue to this recipe.   Ignore any comments about dough too wet.  Make sure you do the 30 minute proofing, and then divide the dough into 2 olive oiled balls and refrigerate.  When ready, stretch by hand and lay into pans.  Perfect!

Thanks Pepe!

Best-Ever Buffalo Chicken Pizza

pizza dough, divided

butter

hot sauce (such as Frank's),

garlic powder

c. shredded cooked chicken

mozzarella,

blue cheese, crumbled

Red onion, thinly sliced

Green onions, thinly sliced

Preheat oven to 500°. Brush two large baking sheets with vegetable oil and sprinkle each with a layer of cornmeal.

Place butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until melted, 20 to 30 seconds. Whisk in hot sauce and garlic powder until combined. Pour half of the&nbsp;buffalo sauce over chicken and toss to coat.

On a lightly floured surface, shape each half of pizza dough into a round ball, then press down the center of each to create a 1/2" crust. With the dough resting on the back of your hands and your knuckles, gently stretch dough out with the help of gravity by moving your hands inch by inch along the crust. Transfer to prepared baking sheets.

Add half of the remaining buffalo sauce to each pizza and spread all over the dough (leaving the outer 1" bare). Divide sauced chicken, torn mozzarella, blue cheese, and red onion evenly between the pizzas.

Bake pizzas until crust is golden and cheese is melty, 15 to 17 minutes. Garnish with green onions and a drizzle of hot sauce (if using)&nbsp;and serve immediately.

this is literally one of the best things i’ve ever eaten, i used premade pizza crust and it still worked perfectly. i was practically crying tears of joy while eating it was THAT good. also super easy to prepare !

This recipe sounded pretty tastey. Was a little worried with high ratings from so few people with no details from them but decided to try it. My wife and I do OMAD and she insists that Friday night is pizza night, which she enjoys more than me. I get tired of even my gourmet pepperoni extraordinaire masterpieces and decided on something completely different. Was very happy with how this turned out! I'd give the final product a 9.4 of 10 on my personal scale, which is an extremely high rating! (Anything 8+ is excellent). I ate the whole pizza in one sitting! (Eating only once a day has it's advantages).

Few comments on what I did. I made a single pizza using a freshly prepared thin pizza crust from a nice grocer (Wegman). It was pretty large. So I can't comment of the pizza crust part. I used this recipe that says it's for 2 pizzas for my single pizza. I was a bit worried the pizza would have a harsh bite (Frank's can be that way on my pallet). But it didn't at all. I found myself drizzling extra hot sauce and blue cheese bits on the pizza as I ate to intensity the flavor even more. Next time I might be a bit more generous with the Frank's. (But I love very spicy food so YMMV. The recipe is extremely good as is and suggest starting there). For chicken I used fresh rotisserie chicken. About 2 cups from breast meat.. For mozzarella I used 8oz of fresh. 

This recipe definitely earned a spot of my pizza favorites list! Highly recommended!!

A bit too much cheese for my liking. Would've been better with less cheese and more toppings. Didn't have a cayanne hot sauce so used 2 Tbs Sriracha sauce instead. Make sure to use bluer/stronger blue cheese, otherwise the blue cheese flavor will come across pretty mild. Otherwise pretty good, though I'd rather stick with a more traditional pizza recipe.

This was delicious and definitely will be on the menu again. I made my own thing crust. We agreed that it would not be as good on a regular or thick crust. I didn't garnish with green onion.

Oh my word....seriously....this pizza made it to our top 3. We opted to put the blue cheese on top after the pie baked, also added some fresh garlic to the butter/hot sauce mix. YUM. We just about devoured the entire thing, and we have ZERO complaints. Just smiles. THANK YOU!
