Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cup warm water
1 tbsp active, dry yeast
2 tbsp sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
4 1/2 cup bread flour
1 tbsp salt
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 cup Pizza Sauce
16 oz mozzarella cheese (shredded) (Monterey Jack, cheddar, crumbled feta or goat, any combination (4 cups))
6 oz pepperoni (sliced) ( or other pizza toppings)

Steps:

  • Place the warm water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.
  • Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about five minutes until a smooth dough ball is formed.
  • Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
  • Combine the dough ingredients in the bread machine pan, according to the order recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Set on dough and start the machine, checking after ten minutes to make sure all the ingredients have been incorporated and not stuck to the side of the pan. Scrape down any stray ingredients to insure they are mixed in.
  • Place the warm water in the mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Allow this to set for five minutes. The mixture will start to foam and bubble.
  • Add the oil, flour, salt, and herbs. Attach the dough hook and run the machine until all the ingredients are incorporated, stopping the machine to scrape the sides as necessary. Knead with the dough hook until a smooth dough ball is formed.
  • Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 °. Spray baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle with corn meal to prevent sticking or line the pans with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
  • Divide the dough into 16 portions. Flatten each portion into a thin round and place on the cooking sheet.
  • Spread sauce and sprinkle toppings as desired.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the crust is crisp and the cheese melted and lightly browned.
  • Wrap cooled pizzas in foil or plastic wrap and stash in a larger ziptop freezer bag. Thaw and reheat in a 350 oven for about 5 minutes.
  • Assemble the pizzas as directed, but instead of baking, place the trays in the freezer. Once the pizzas are frozen solid (this will take several hours), stack them between layers of patty papers or waxed paper and store in a freezer bag or box in the freezer. To serve: bake from frozen at 450 degrees, for 10 to 12 minutes.

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups warm water
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 ½ cups prepared tomato sauce
1 clove garlic, diced
2 tablespoons fresh oregano, diced
2 tablespoons fresh basil, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup chopped fresh spinach, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix flour, water, olive oil, yeast, salt, and sugar together in a large bowl. Use an ice cream scoop to place 12 balls of dough onto the prepared pan, patting down slightly; dough will be very sticky. Let sit until risen, about 30 minutes, without kneading or punching down.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking pan. Toss an ice cube into the bottom of the oven to add some humidity.
  • Combine tomato sauce, garlic, oregano, and basil in a bowl. Add olive oil, vinegar, and sugar; stir very well.
  • Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons tomato sauce on each dough ball. Sprinkle 1 to 4 tablespoons mozzarella cheese on top and add spinach.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
