Homemade Pizza

We love pizza! Because I have food allergies and can't eat regular flour, I have to make my own pizza crust. Soon after we were married I started experimenting with different recipes. This recipe is definitely the best! It is the quickest, easiest and tastiest! I originally got this recipe from Crystal at Money Saving Mom but I've made a few changes. Go here to see the original recipe.

Pizza Crust:

1 pkg dry yeast

1 cup warm water (105-115 degrees)

1 tsp salt

1 tsp sugar

2 Tbsp vegetable oil (I use olive oil sometimes too)

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp (each) oregano, basil, & rosemary (if you don't have separate spices, you can substitute Italian seasoning)

2 1/2 cups flour

Dissolve the yeast in water. Add remaining ingredients except flour. Mix well.

Stir in flour & knead until dough is smooth.

I knead in my bowl, but you do it on a floured surface as well.

Roll out and press onto a greased pizza stone or pizza pan

Add your favorite toppings.

This is the combination we like best: Ragu pasta sauce, pepperoni, cooked & drained sausage, peppers, onions, and mozzarella cheese. Look here for some creative topping ideas!

Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until crust looks crispy and slightly browned. Enjoy!
