No-Yeast Pizza Dough
Description
The No-Yeast Pizza Dough recipe uses a chemical leavening agent, baking powder, instead of yeast, which allows for faster preparation. The mixture of flour, baking powder, and salt forms the dry base. Olive oil and water are then incorporated to create a dough that comes together with some kneading.
After a short resting period to relax the gluten, the dough is rolled or stretched to the desired thickness (not less than 1/4 inch) and placed on a baking surface. The dough can be baked topped with favorite sauces and toppings at a high temperature (around 425ºF) until done.
This dough is practical for those wanting homemade pizza without fermentation time but still achieving a tender crust. It can be shaped easily and baked in standard ovens.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour $0.61
- 1 Tbsp baking powder $0.12
- 3/4 tsp salt $0.03
- 1 Tbsp olive oil $0.16
- 1 cup water $0.00
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the olive oil to the water, then pour them both into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until a shaggy ball of dough forms and no more dry flour remains on the bottom of the bowl. If the dough does not come together in one piece or there is still dry flour in the bowl, add a small amount of water (1 Tbsp at a time) until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead just a few times, or until the dough feels evenly mixed (no hard or dry pieces). Let the dough rest for about 5 minutes to relax the gluten.
- Stretch or roll the dough out into your desired shape, making sure not to stretch it to less than ¼-inch thick.
- Place the dough on your preferred pan (prepared with either parchment or a good dusting of cornmeal or flour), then top the pizza with your favorite sauce and toppings. Bake the pizza for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned on top. Slice and serve immediately.
Notes
- Price and nutrition data apply to just the pizza crust and do not include toppings.
