EASY 30 MINUTE PIZZA CRUST
Steps:
- In a large bowl mix together 2 cups of bread flour, sugar, salt, and Fleischmann's® RapidRise™ Yeast.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm water. Using your hands, mix everything together until it forms a dough. The dough will be sticky, but don't worry, it will come together once you knead it!
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead the dough for 5 minutes or until the texture of the dough starts to smooth out. If the dough feels too sticky, add remaining ¼ cup flour in a tablespoon at a time until the dough is dry enough to work with. Form the dough into a ball and place into a greased bowl. Cover loosely with a dish cloth and put in a warm place to rise for just ten minutes.
- After ten minutes, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface. We like to do this on a piece of parchment paper for easy clean up and transport. Stretch out dough into a 12 inch round and place on pizza stone or baking sheet. Top with sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings you desire. Baked at 500° F for 10 minutes! Allow to cool before slicing and eating!
EASY PEASY 30-MINUTE PIZZA DOUGH
Super simple and delish, and open for variation...this one I change my normal methodology of making pizza dough. I used fast-rise active dry yeast so I only had to wait about 20 minutes.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, place the warm water in first then the honey.
- Sprinkle the yeast on top, agitate the bowl slightly if you have to so the yeast gets immersed in the water. Wait 10-15 minutes or until foamy.
- Add the oil and salt.
- Blend in the flours and knead until elasticy, about 5 minutes or so.
- Cover with parchment paper or a dish towel and let rise for 20-30 minutes.
- Spray a cookie sheet, pizza stone, or round baking dish with cooking spray and put some dough in and you're set!
- I get about 4-5 8" mini pizzas out of this. Maybe more if I really rolled it out to make thin-crust.

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA CRUST
This is a great recipe when you don't want to wait for the dough to rise. You just mix it and allow it to rest for 5 minutes and then it's ready to go!! It yields a soft, chewy crust. For a real treat, I recommend you use bread flour and bake it on a pizza stone, but all-purpose flour works well too. Enjoy!

EASY 30-MINUTE PIZZA DOUGH II
Based on my swear-by recipe Recipe #420921 and another dough recipe. 1 1/2 cup AP flour + 1 1/2 tbsp vital wheat gluten = 1 1/2 cup bread flour. Fast-rise active dry yeast speeds this up too; and it's okay if you use a 0.25-oz packet instead of measuring out 2 tsp of yeast from a jar if you reduce the rising time.

Steps:
- Stir whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, salt, sugar, olive oil, and warm water with a spatula until formed into a sticky ball of dough that pulls away from sides of a large bowl, about 3-4 minutes.
- Cover the bowl with a light cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) for 18 hours, until doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 550 degrees F (280 degrees C). Sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle with more flour. Form the dough into a rectangle, and cut it into four equal parts. Shape each piece into a ball, stretching and tucking the dough to create a smooth surface, adding more flour if needed. Cover the dough balls with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
- To shape the dough, sprinkle the surface with flour and lightly pat flat. Use a rolling pin to form a thin disk about 9 inches in diameter.
- Transfer the formed crust to the prepared baking sheet and top as desired. Bake on the bottom rack for 4 minutes, move to the middle rack and bake for 5-6 minutes more minutes, until the bottom is crispy and the top is lightly browned. Move to cooling rack to cool slightly before serving.

Tips:
- Use the right flour: Bread flour or all-purpose flour can be used for this recipe. Bread flour will result in a chewier crust, while all-purpose flour will produce a more tender crust.
- Activate the yeast properly: Make sure the water is warm to the touch (around 110-115°F) before adding the yeast. If the water is too hot, it will kill the yeast and your dough will not rise. If the water is too cold, the yeast will not activate properly and your dough will take longer to rise.
- Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten, which gives the pizza dough its structure and elasticity. Knead the dough for at least 5-7 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough needs to rise in a warm place (around 75-80°F) for at least 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size. If you do not have a warm place, you can place the dough in a warm oven with the light on.
- Roll out the dough thinly: The thinner the dough is, the crispier the crust will be. Roll out the dough to a 12-inch circle.
- Bake the pizza at a high temperature: The pizza should be baked at a high temperature (450-500°F) for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
This easy-peasy 30-minute pizza dough recipe is a great way to make homemade pizza quickly and easily. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious, hot pizza that the whole family will love. So next time you're craving pizza, give this recipe a try!
