Here is my favorite basic pizza dough recipe. I have used it for pizza, breadsticks, calzones, and more. It always turns out delicious!
Pizza Dough
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/2 Tbsp yeast
- 1 Tbsp honey
- Flour
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
In the bowl of a stand mixer combine everything except flour. Let mixture sit for 4-5 minutes. Using a dough hook mix in flour ½ cup at a time until mixture comes together and forms a ball. Continue adding flour until the dough is not sticky. Turn out onto floured counter and knead until dough forms a smooth ball(2-3 minutes) or continue mixing with the dough hook for 2-3 minutes. Rub a small amount of olive oil on dough and place in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and then cover with a towel. Place in a warm spot for 1-2 hours. Dough should double in size.
When you are ready to make the pizza, roll out dough and add desired toppings. Bake pizza in a 500 degree over until cheese is browned and bubbling.
