Fast & Easy Pizza Dough

I have always wanted a fast and easy recipe for pizza dough that you can whip up in just a few min. and bake. To date they have always fell short. So, today me and my husband teamed up to make a pizza feast for our kids. Oh and well, one pizza pie for just us. Pictured above is our *Buffalo Chicken Blue Cheese pizza made on the Weber. DELICIOUS!! This recipe for pizza crust is just one that I have found on the internet, tried and loved!!

Fast and Easy Pizza Dough

1 Cup HOT tap water
1 Pkg. Yeast or 1 1/2 T. if you are using bulk yeast
1 Tsp. Sugar

Mix all of this together in a 2 cup measuring cup and set aside to let the yeast activate.

In another large bowl combine

2 T. Olive Oil
1 Tsp. Salt
Add activated Yeast
2 1/2 Cups Bread Flour

If you are mixing without the aid of a kitchen aid mix well with a spoon and the turn out on a floured surface and knead together for 10 min. You may have to adjust flour for humidity and or the lack there of. Roll out when your dough is smooth and not to sticky. Roll out to desired circumference. Bake for 10 min. in the oven at 425 degrees or 8 min on the Weber. After baking coat the crust with a garlic butter. ENJOY!!!

If you are using a Kitchen Aid, which I highly recommend. Mix all ingredients together adding the activated yeast and flour last. Set the bread hook speed to 2 and let it kneed for 10 min. When time is up, remove the dough from hook and kneed a few times on a floured surface. Roll to desired circumference.  Bake for 10 min. in the oven at 425 degrees or 8 min on the Weber. After baking coat the crust with a garlic butter. ENJOY!!!

(*To make the buffalo chicken blue cheese pizza you will need 2 chicken breasts that have been fried in 2T. olive oil. and tossed with Buffalo Wild Wings sauce. When making the pizza use the Buffalo Sauce  as your pizza sauce. Add Chicken and fresh blue cheese crumbles and bake.  Bake in the oven at 450 degree's for 10 min. or until desired browning. )
