Ingredients

  • 3 cups levelled all-purpose flour 375g
  • 2 tablespoons sugar 33g
  • 1 tablespoon 9g Instant Yeast
  • ½ tablespoon baking powder 4g
  • tablespoon milk powder 10g
  • 1 teaspoon salt leveled
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup of lukewarm water

Instructions

Combine and Knead

  • In a bowl of a stand mixer, add the flour, sugar, instant yeast, baking powder, milk powder, salt, vegetable oil and lukewarm water. I weigh the ingredients to ensure perfect results every time.
  • Mix the ingredients in the stand mixer until combined. Knead the dough for 5-6 minutes on high speed until it forms a smooth ball. You can also knead by hand. It may take 10-15 minutes.

Dough Rise:

  • Lightly oil the same bowl.
  • Shape the dough into a ball and place it back in the bowl.
  • Lightly oil the dough's surface.
  • Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.

Prepare for Baking:

  • Once the dough has risen, it is ready to use. There is no need for a second rise.
  • Roll out the pizza dough and place it on a baking tray to your desired thickness.
  • Add your favorite toppings.

Baking Instructions:

  • Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
  • Bake the pizza dough for approximately 20 minutes or until it is golden brown. You can also make a large rectangular pizza directly on the oven tray or create personal-sized or mini pizzas.

Notes

If you prefer, bake the pizza base for 10 minutes, allow it to cool, and then freeze it for later use.
