Yesterday, we had one of those evenings where nothing sounded good at all. If we weren't watching our budget, I would have suggested ordering a pizza or going out for fast food. Trying to control that instinct, I searched the fridge for an easy meal and came up empty handed. When I noticed some leftover rotisserie chicken, I decided to make a quick pizza. I hopped onto Google and searched for an easy at-home pizza crust. While my husband is an excellent baker, I limit myself to quickbreads and cookies. I have never tried to make bread or use yeast in any way. Thankfully my husband had some leftover yeast in the pantry so I was able to pull this crust together quickly. This is not a gourmet pizza crust by any stretch of the imagination. But if you need a quick, easy dinner that will satisfy both parents and kids, this is a great option!
30 Minute Homemade Pizza Crust
1 (.25oz) package active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
1 c warm water
2 1/2c bread flour
2 T olive oil
1 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water and let rest for 10 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Beat until smooth and let rest another 5 minutes. Roll out dough onto a lightly floured surface and transfer to pizza stone or baking pan dusted with cornmeal. Add toppings and bake for 15-20 minutes.
