Pizza before/after

Pizza Dough For One

Ingredients

1 cup bread flour, divided
1 cup warm water (100° to 110°)
1 tsp sugar
1 package dry yeast (about 21/4 tsp)
11/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided + 1/2 for sprinkling
1/2 tsp salt
cooking spray

Combine 1/2 cup bread flour, warm water, 1 tsp sugar, and yeast; stirring with whisk

Let stand 15 minutes.


Lightly spoon 11/2 cups all-purpose flour into dry measuring cup, level with knife

Combine 11/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup bread flour, and salt in large bowl; stirring with whisk


Make a well in center of mixture; Add yeast mixture to flour mixture; stir well

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.

Knead until smooth and elastic; about 10 minutes

Add all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp at time to prevent dough from sticking to hands (will still feel tacky)

Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top

Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts; 45 minutes or until doubled in size


Gently press two fingers into dough. If indentation remains, the dough has risen enough.

Punch dough down; cover and let rest 20 minutes
