Individual Homemade Pizzas
- Prep Time: 30 minutes
- Cook Time: 17 minutes
- Total Time: 47 minutes
- Yield: 4 individual pizzas 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of warm water
- ½ package of active dry yeast (about 1 & 1/8 teaspoon)
- 1 and ½ teaspoon of granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 3 Tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cups of bread flour
- Blended Pizza Cheese (Mozzarella and Provolone)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast, sugar, oil and salt. Mix until the yeast dissolves. This dough does not need to rise.
- Using a wooden spoon, mix in the flour, ½ cup at a time. Once it’s all mixed together, knead it on a floured counter until it feels elastic.
- Divide into 4 parts, roll each into a ball and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Assemble the toppings. You can use a jar of prepared pizza sauce or make a simple sauce yourself by combining a 15 ounce can of tomato sauce with 1 and ½ Tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and 1 Tablespoon of Italian seasoning.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. A pizza stone will deliver a crispy crust, whether thick or thin. Otherwise a baking sheet will do.
- Shape each individual dough ball into a round crust about 1/8 of an inch thick.
- Bake at 425 degrees for 11 to 17 minutes turning once or twice after 10 minutes.
- Once the pizza is turned over, add the sauce and a few toppings (not too many) and sprinkle on pizza cheese. Return to the oven and finish baking. The pizza is done once the cheese is melted.
