Course: Pizza
Cuisine: Italian
Servings: 6 Servings

Ingredients

  • cups All purpose Flour
  • cup Semolina/ Fine sooji, if you don’t want to use whole wheat flour, just add 1¼cups of semolina
  • 1 tsp Yeast
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • tsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Pizza dough flavor
  • cups Lukewarm water
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients and knead to form a soft and smooth dough. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rise for 45 minutes.
  • Put the bowl in the fridge for at least 4 hours and up to 36 hours.
  • When ready to make pizzas, preheat the oven with a pizza stone to 450°F.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and divide it into 2 equal parts. Stretch each piece into a 12″ round thin pizza and place it on a parchment paper. Repeat with the other piece. Alternately to make personal pizzas, divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and stretch them into 5~6″ round thin pizzas. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Place the parchment with the pizza on the pizza stone and bake for 6 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and top it with your favorite toppings and bake for 8 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted. Serve!!

Notes

Some of the all-purpose flour can be substituted with wholewheat flour. Here are 2 options that have worked for me:
  • Option 1: 1 cup of all-purpose flour + ¾ cup whole-wheat flour
  • Option 2: 1¼ cups of all-purpose flour + ½ cup whole-wheat flour
