Easy Flash Pizza Dough!!

Easy Flash Pizza Dough

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all purpose flour, or more as needed
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder.
  • 1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt. ( I’ve substituted sour cream and it comes out great.)
  • 1 teaspoon water, or as needed (Optional)

Directions:

  1. Mix 2 cups flour, baking powder, sugar, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for dough in a bowl until well combined. Add olive oil and Greek yogurt and mix with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Clean off the spoon and mix the dough with your hands until it mostly comes together. 
    Transfer dough to a work surface and continue pushing it together until it smooths out. It will be dry; don’t be tempted yet to add more liquid. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, 3 to 4 minutes, only adding a teaspoon or two of water or flour if absolutely necessary.
  2. Let the dough sit for about 30 minutes to rest. Not being a yeast douhg it will only rise a little.
  3. Cut dough into two equal pieces.
    Spray a baking sheet or 12 inch pizza pan with  baking spray or a little vegetable oil, spread with a paper towel to get an even coat of oil.
  4. Roll one piece dough out on a floured surface and roll or press into a 10-12 inch circle. Pizza pan. Prick holes with a fork all over the dough.
  5. Bake in a 350 oven for about 10-15 minute until it just starts to brown. Pull out of the oven and add your toppings. Bake in a 400 oven for 12-15 minutes. This crust turns out crispy and light.
