Ingredients

• 1/2-3/4 c. warm water 110-115deg.
• 1pkg (1 TBSP) dry yeast
• 1 tsp sugar
• 2 cups flour
• 1 TBSP oil
• 1/2 tsp salt

Directions

1. Mix 1/4 c of the water with yeast and sugar in small bowl- let sit for 5min or until bubbly. Put flour, salt and oil in food processor (or mixer, I use my kitchenaid mixer for it with the dough hook)- mix for 5 sec. pour in yeast/water/sugar mix. mix for 10 sec. Turn on processor and slowly drizzle in remaining water just until the dough pulls away from sides of processor and turns around about 25 times. The dough should not be too sticky. Place dough ball on greased pizza pan- cover with bowl for 10 min. Press into pizza pan and add your favorite toppings. Bake 425 for 15-20min until golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.

2. You can also make 2- 15" thin crust pizzas from this instead of one thick crust. I do this when I make the pizzas to put in the freezer.

3. For homemade Frozen pizza:

4. Mix crust as above. Add sauce (I make my own homemade pizza sauce from the tomatos I grow in the garden and can it each year, it’s delicious!) and meat/veggie toppings. Do NOT add cheese yet. Bake at 400* for 10 min. Allow to cool on pan. Once pizza is cooled, add shreaded cheese. Wrap in tin foil and put in freezer. To bake- take out frozen pizza and place on pizza sheet or directly on rack still frozen. Bake 400* for 12-15 min our until crust browns and cheese is melted.

5. These are very cheap alternative to the frozen pizza’s you buy in the store and always made with the toppings you want! I’ve had them last in the freezer for up to 6mths though they usually don’t last that long.
