Homemade Pizza

This is my daughter's topped with some ham, pineapple, & cheese
 
One of our favorite meals to make is homemade pizza.  Most of the time I grind up my own flour blend to use, but my grinder is still at the repair shop so we did us all-purpose flour...scary...LOL.
It's still homemade & is still better for you. Also, it's fun to make your own pizza!
 
 
Crust:
1 T. yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tsp. sugar
2 T. oil
1/2 tsp. salt
3 cups flour
 
In your bowl (or can use a bread maker with a dough setting) Place the warm water, yeast, oil, & sugar.   Allow to set for about 3-5 minutes.
Then add in the flour & salt.
Mix or knead it until all combined and looks like a nice soft ball of dough.
Cover and allow to rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour.
On a lightly greased pizza pan or cookie sheet roll or press out into the shapes you want. 
Now bake the plain crust for 5 minutes on 425*
Then remove & put on your toppings.
Return to the oven for about 10-15 minutes or until bubbly and the crust looks a little golden.
This will make 2 large pizzas or about 4-5 smaller ones.
 

The left has hamburger, onion & cheese
The right had it all.
They are shaped different to fit on my cookie sheet.
