Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together and knead the dough 10 times.
- Roll out on a floured board to a 14-inch circle.
- Brush the crust with 1 tablespoon of salad oil.
- Add your favorite toppings to the crust.
- Bake in a 450°F oven until the crust is golden and toppings are cooked.
Tips & Substitutions
For a fluffier crust, consider using self-rising flour instead of all-purpose flour, as it contains baking powder and salt. If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute half of the salad oil with melted butter. Knead the dough just until combined to avoid tough crust. Experiment with seasonings like garlic powder or Italian herbs for added flavor. This crust pairs beautifully with Cherry-Cheese Turnovers for dessert.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this pizza crust with a variety of toppings, such as fresh vegetables, pepperoni, or mozzarella cheese. It works well with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal. For a fun twist, cut the baked pizza into strips and serve with marinara sauce for dipping, making it an excellent appetizer or snack.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, preheat your oven to 375°F, place the pizza on a baking sheet, and heat for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through. For a crispier crust, consider reheating on a pizza stone or directly on the oven rack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough ahead of time. After kneading, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to use, simply roll it out as directed. This allows the flavors to develop further and can enhance the taste of your pizza crust.
What can I use instead of milk in this recipe?
If you're looking for a dairy-free option, you can substitute the milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any plant-based milk. For a richer taste, consider using buttermilk or yogurt mixed with water. This will keep the recipe creamy while accommodating dietary preferences.
How do I know when the pizza crust is done baking?
The pizza crust is done when it turns a golden brown color and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. The edges should be firm and crisp. If you're unsure, you can use a toothpick or skewer—insert it into the crust; it should come out clean without any wet dough.
