Leslie's Homemade Pizza
Total Time: 1 hr 47 mins
Preparation Time: 1 hr 27 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons warm water
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 cups bread flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 16 ounces pizza sauce
- 2 ounces pepperoni
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Recipe
- 1 i use a bread machine to make this dough. start by adding all the water and the 2t of oil (i used canola, but olive would be great)to the machine.
- 2 next, add both of the flours, "sealing off" the wet ingredients.
- 3 add the sugar, salt, oregano, and garlic powder.
- 4 make a "well" with your finger in the middle of the dry ingredients. this is where you put the yeast.
- 5 turn the bread machine on, and using the dough cycle, let it do its thing. my machine runs for 1:30 on this cycle, and when it's finished you have enough dough to make 2 regular pizzas or 1 deep dish pizza.
- 6 lightly flour the surface on which you will be working, and turn the dough out onto that surface. knead the dough a little, then put a dishtowel over it and let it set for about 1/2 hour.
- 7 divide the dough in half (if you're making 2 pizzas) and refrigerate the part you're not using. you can use it another day for another pizza!
- 8 spray the bottom of a pizza pan with non-stick spray. spread the dough out into the pan.
- 9 top with desired toppings. i used 8 oz store bought pizza sauce and about an oz of pepperoni per pizza. then about 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and a little parmesan.
- 10 bake at 400f for about 13 minutes then decrease the temperature to 350f and let cook about 7 more minutes. (i would probably just leave it at 400f for the whole 20 minutes if i were making the deep dish pizza -- maybe even more. just keep checking on it to make sure your cheese doesn't burn.).
