Homemade pizza is so simple to make. Use ingredients you have on hand for your toppings.
Ingredients
Pizza dough:
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1/2 cup lukewarm water
- 2 1/4 teaspoons dry yeast
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 5 to 5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- In either a saucepan or in the microwave, warm the milk. Just slightly warmer than lukewarm.
- Pour the warmed milk into a large mixing bowl of a stand-mixer. Add the lukewarm water, yeast and honey and stir with a spoon or whisk. Let sit for 3 or 4 minutes. Then add the eggs and olive oil and stir.
- Add the flour and salt, mix using the beater attachment. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl occasionally with a rubber spatula or rubber table scraper. Beat on medium to high speed for 4 to 5 minutes.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough gently for 5 minutes or so. Shape the dough into a round. Spray the mixer bowl with cooking spray or coat with a touch of olive oil. Place the dough back into the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm kitchen for 1 hour or until doubled. Punch down and let rise again, another hour.
