PIONEER WOMAN PIZZA DOUGH RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Sprinkle the yeast over 1 1/2 cups of warm (not lukewarm) water. Let stand for a few minutes.
• Combine the flour and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer on low speed and drizzle in the oil until combined with the flour. Next, pour in the yeast mixture and mix until just combined and the dough comes together in a sticky mass.
• Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil and form the dough into a ball. Toss to coat the dough in the oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set it aside for at least 1 or up to 2 hours at room temperature, or store in the fridge until you need it, up to 4 days ahead. Bring the refrigerated dough to room temperature before using.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk to combine and then let sit until bubbles have formed on the top, about 10 minutes. Add the flour, olive oil and salt and mix with the dough hook on medium-low speed until the dough comes together, about 2 minutes. Increase the speed to medium-high and knead until the dough is shiny and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place until the dough is doubled in size, about 1 hour. Punch down the dough, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place until the dough is doubled in size, about 1 hour. Punch down the dough, cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 3 days before making your pizzas. Makes enough dough for 2 12-inch pizzas.
