Real Easy Pizza Crust
Printable Version
Ingredients
- 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast (when using jarred active dry yeast 2 1/4 tsp)
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C make sure it is this temp!)
- 2 1/2 cups bread flour (Bread flour is the best but all-purpose flour will work OK)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
- Stir in flour, salt and oil. (I sometimes add extra spices to my crust the best and easiest way to add herbs is to mix them into the olive oil before you add it to the batter)
- Beat until smooth. Let rest for 5 minutes.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat or roll into a round. Transfer crust to a lightly greased pizza pan or baker's peel dusted with cornmeal.(I mix a bit of garlic powder (about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp) into the olive oil that I brush onto the edge of the crust, which gives it a touch of garlicky flavor and helps the edge turn nice and golden in the oven.) Spread with desired toppings and bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let baked pizza cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Ingredients
- real easy pizza crust (recipe above)
- 3 medium unpeeled potatoes, baked and cooled (I microwave them if I'm in a real hurry)
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese ( I like the whole mozzarella cheese ball you can buy at the deli, just slice it and place the slices on pizza)
- 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
- Prepare crust according to recipe above. Press dough into a 14-in. pizza stone (or a lightly greased pizza pan); build up edges slightly.
- Cut potatoes into 1/2-in. cubes. In a bowl, combine butter, garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Add potatoes and toss.
- Mix sour cream and the ranch dressing. Spread sour cream/ranch mix over crust; top with potato mixture, bacon, onions and cheeses. Bake at 450 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is lightly browned. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.

Ingredients
- Real easy pizza crust (recipe above)
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half (I used left over honey BBQ chicken)
- 1/4 cup barbeque sauce, divided (I used Bull's-Eye original)
- 1/2 cup Classico® Tomato and Basil Sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/3 cup sliced green onion
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the chicken breast in the skillet, and top with 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce. Cook 10 minutes, turn, and top with 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce. Continue cooking 10 minutes, until juices run clear. Cool slightly, and cut into chunks.(skip this step if you are using leftover chicken)
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining barbeque sauce and pasta sauce. Spread evenly over the pizza crust. Arrange cooked chicken chunks and green onion slices over the top. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from heat, sprinkle with cilantro, and let sit 10 minutes before slicing.
