This homemade pizza dough recipe is so quick and easy to make and delicious – that it will make pizza night stress free!
If you are looking for a quick and easy homemade pizza dough recipe this one is perfect – it’s so easy to make and delicious! I love making homemade pizza dough for pizza night because it makes dinner fun. We all get to make our own pizza exactly how we want it which makes everyone in the family happy!
It only takes a couple of minutes to make the dough and then a couple more to knead and roll the dough out. Everyone can assemble their own pizza before baking it in the oven. It’s the perfect dinner for movie night or if your child has friends over for dinner or if you just want an easy dinner that will make everyone happy.
Homemade Pizza Dough
In the bowl for your mixer, combine one cup of flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and garlic powder. Turn on the mixer with the dough hook attached and slowly pour in warm water and olive oil. Then slowly add another cup of flour.
Once the dough is combined and has pulled away from the sides and into a ball, turn off the mixer. If your dough is still sticky or wet you can add a little bit more flour.
Lightly oil a bowl, place the pizza dough in the bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rise for 30 minutes to an hour. On a floured surface, turn the pizza dough out and knead for about one minute. You can make one pizza or divide the dough up into individual pizzas.
Roll your dough out to your desired thickness, using a fork poke holes into the dough and brush the dough with olive oil. Then top your pizza with pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes and enjoy!
