Mama's Best Pizza Dough Recipes Ever: Simple, 5-Ingredients

preview

Skip to contentHow many of you have ever made your own bread? I know a lot of you out there don’t do it. I was one of you up until about 6 years ago. &nbsp;I was just plain scared of it. &nbsp;It always seemed so daunting. I didn’t think I had the time, patience, or ability to actually make it come out the way it was supposed to. &nbsp;Guess what! &nbsp;I was wrong, and so are you if that’s the way you feel about making your own dough from scratch. &nbsp;I just might change your world today. Our Mama’s Best Pizza Dough recipe is the most versatile recipe I think I have ever come across. It is the quickest and best dough because it rises as it bakes, and there’s only 5, count ’em, 5 ingredients! I make this dough for all things bread. Believe me, it won’t stop with just pizza.PrintMama’s Best Pizza Dough AKA One Dough To Rule Them AllIngredientsInstructionsMEASURE THE “WARM WATER” INTO YOUR MIXER. TIP: THE YEAST NEEDS “WARM WATER” TO ACTIVATE. IF THE WATER IS TOO HOT, IT WILL KILL THE YEAST, AND IF IT IS TOO COOL, IT WON’T ALLOW THE YEAST TO GROW. SO LET’S DEFINE “WARM WATER”. MY MOM DIDN’T BREAK OUT A THERMOMETER EVERY TIME SHE MADE BREAD, NOR DID SHE TEACH ME THE OPTIMAL TEMPERATURE NEEDED TO ACTIVATE YEAST (IT HAPPENS TO BE BETWEEN 105 AND 110 F IF YOU WANTED TO KNOW). SHE TOLD ME IN PLAIN AND SIMPLE TERMS. ALL YOU DO IS RUN YOUR FINGER UNDER THE TAP. ADJUST THE TEMPERATURE SO THAT YOU ALMOST WANT TO TAKE YOUR FINGER OUT BECAUSE IT’S TOO HOT. ACTIVE DRY YEAST DOES NEED A BIT OF HEAT TO DISSOLVE AND GROW, BUT IF YOU CAN’T LEAVE YOUR FINGER UNDER THE WATER, IT’S TOO HOT FOR YOUR YEAST TOO. SO AS CONFUSING AS IT IS, WHEN A BREAD RECIPE CALLS FOR “WARM WATER” FOR YEAST, IT SHOULD REALLY SAY “ALMOST HOT WATER”. SOUNDS ARCHAIC, I KNOW, BUT IT’S ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME. ADD THE YEAST TO THE WATER AND LET IT DISSOLVE FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES. It should form a froth on the surface. NEXT, ADD THE SUGAR, SALT AND ABOUT 2 – 3 CUPS OF THE FLOUR AND WHISK TOGETHER. If you’re using a mixer, put it to no more than about speed 2. At this point your mixture will be smooth and resemble somewhat of a batter more than a dough. STIR IN THE REMAINING FLOUR. Change your whisk out for a large wooden spoon or the kneading attachment on your mixer. Start up your mixer or start up your muscles and mix. Continue to add flour to the dough “cleans” itself away from the side of the bowl. This is usually somewhere between 6 – 7 cups. KNEAD THE DOUGH UNTIL SMOOTH AND ELASTIC. (ABOUT 6 MINUTES). You want a soft dough, but not sticky. If it sticks to your hand and stays there, add a bit more flour in small increments. If it sticks to your hand, but comes off clean, you’re good to go. LET THE DOUGH REST FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. This allows the dough to relax and become malleable again to roll out for your pizza. Once you have rolled out your pizza, no need to wait for it to rise. Top it, and bake it. 400 for 16 -20 minutes depending on the thickness of your dough. 3.1https://www.themamasgirls.com/mamas-best-pizza-dough-recipes-ever/Want to know what we use when we make our pizza? Here are some of our can’t do without products:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;– I personally like aluminum pans. They are a little thicker and seem to cook more evenly. &nbsp;This particular pan comes in multiple sizes so they’re sure to have what you need.&nbsp;– You know you are truly domesticated when you own a rolling pin. I like the good old fashioned wood ones. &nbsp;They are made to last forever.&nbsp;– Good Grips is a great brand. &nbsp;Everything they make feels so comfortable in your hand. &nbsp;You won’t just use this for pizza either. &nbsp;Maybe they should rename this the &nbsp;brownie/homemade noodle/pizza cutter. 🙂Pingback: How To Make Pizza DoughThank you so much for the information on “warm water” for when making bread. i have tried and always failed every time i have made any kind of homemade bread. the yeast never seems to activate properly. And I was just to cheap to go buy a thermometer. I am going to try again today using your tips. Thanks so much!Thank you so much for this tip, also. I had used a bread machine for about a year, and I, too, never used a thermometer. I could never figure out why it turned out perfect sometimes and awful others. You are a life saver!!! PS, I’ve used this recipe many, many times and I love it. Thank you!!!This is the best pizza dough I have ever made!!! I use a pizza stone the old fashioned way and I have to cut the dough in half but what’s so wonderful is that I can make two pies with different toppings to please everyone, thank you so very much.This was great, it turned out perfectCan this recipe be frozen? Great recipe! Thanks 🙂This sounds awesome. Do you ever use a pizza stone with this recipe? I am just wondering what oven temp and how long to cook it for on a stone? Im new to the whole stone cooked pizza and any help would be great.Can you use instant dry yeast instead of active dry yeast?This recipe calls for an extreme amount of water.. (3 cups). Any recipe I have ever used calls for 1 cup of water per 3 cups of flour.. there is an extra 1 cup of water in this.. is this an error???Pingback: Best Pizza Dough | Bucket List RecipesSince using the “no knead” method, I simply don’t want to bake any other way. I let the bread rise overnight and throughout the day and it is ready to bake at dinner time. It can be used for pizza or made as an artisan bread or rolls. I only need to use 1/4 tsp. of active dry yeast or bread machine yeast. Rising times, however, can be 2 to 24 hours. It can rise in the fridge, on the counter, in a cold oven or warm room. The longer the proof time, the better the flavor. Longer gives it a rather sourdough flavor. It is delcious and simple to make on almost any schedule. Very forgiving and easy to make this way. Time kneads the bread.Pingback: Pizza time! | Isabelle en GuadalajaraCan you freeze the dough until ready to use?What kind of flour do you recommend in “Mama’s Best Pizza Dough” recipe?What kind of yeast?This turned out great! The info on the water temp was so helpful. I never get that part right! Thanks!!Any tips I should know before I refrigerate it for a couple days? Should I let it rise first and then pound it?Hi ThereThanks for sharing the water tip. I love making homemade pizzas, so u can have better control over ingredients, but my attempts never turn out right. Now I know why, all this time I have been using warm water instead of the right temp. I will be trying it this week. Can’t wait to see how it turns out! 😉This dough is awesome! I did a review of it on my site. This is going on my go to recipes.http://mommywithavision.blogspot.com/2014/02/tried-and-true-chapter-2-pizza-dough.htmlI made this tonight and rubbed some garlic, basil, and oregano on top. It came out very good! It rose a lot while baking and was very fluffy. What could I do to flatten it a little and make it spread easier on the pan? It really wanted to stay in a ball. Thanks for the recipe!Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what kind of flour did you use?Pingback: Pizza! | Creations By a HareI’m a little confused. Your recipe says to “let it rest for 10 min” nothing about letting it rise but in some of the comments you have responded to on here you talk about letting it rise. Do you need to let this dough rise? Help! I know regular bread dough and almost every other pizza dough recipe says to let it rise but it just doesn’t say to do it except in your comments. Thanks for hopefully clearing this up!Hey ice used this recipe numerous times and love it! Just wondering if can you use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose, using the same measurements?Thanks!I can’t thank you enough for this dough recipe! I’ve been craving zeppole (Italian doughnuts) for a few days now and haven’t had the heart to ask hubby to go to work to pick up a ball of dough on his days off! lol Now he won’t have to and my cravings will be satisfied! 😀I made this pizza dough tonight after finding this recipe via Pinterest. It was very simple and turned out yummyliciously (I invented a new word for how yummy the crust of my home-made pizza was) ! I started mixing it using the plastic kneading blade of my food processor, but ran out of room so I finished the rest by hand. I had enough dough to make 2 large pizzas. I put one of the dough balls in my fridge and will try to make it again on the weekend. Next time I’ll half the recipe so I can make the whole thing in the food processor and speed up the preparation time. Thanks for sharing! 🙂This looks great. Do you have any recipes for strawberry cake?I’ve been making bread for over 40 years. It is so fun to play in the kitchen with my new found bread dough from you. Just found your website about a month ago. Have made breadsticks, pizza twice and tonight we are having Smokies in a blanket and with the left over dough will make a few cinnamon rolls and then some cinnamon twists, can hardly wait.

Im actually about to use it for a get together on Tuesday. And i just wanted to thankyou even on the warm water tip.Excellent post! I actually use your recipe to make the pizza cake!I’ve always ordered pizza. I’ve made your recipe for the first time about a month ago..WOW. It is amazingly easy.
