Homemade Pizza Dough (this makes one)
Ingredients

  • 4 cups/512g Flour
  • 1 tbsp Yeast instant
  • ⅓ cup/113g Avocado Oil
  • 1½ cup/18oz Warm Water
  • 2 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Avocado Oil for a bowl

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Pour in the water while stirring. Then add olive oil and continue to mix by hand. Mix until a sticky dough forms.

2. Brush the insides of a second bowl with avocado oil and transfer a ball of dough. Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise for at least 1 hour. The dough should be approximately double in size.

3. Once risen, place dough on a baking sheet, lined with parchment paper. Stretch and press it out until you cover the baking sheet with ¼ inch thick crust.

Using a pizza cutter, cut into 12 equal strips. Twist one strip into each of the muffin tin wells, making sure to fill the space (don't leave a hole in the center). Place in oven for 20 minutes.

Cool and Enjoy!
