How to Make and Freeze a Pizza Dough
Ingredients
2 ¾
cups
bread flour
1
teaspoon
Kosher salt
2 ½
teaspoons
instant or fast rising yeast
2
tablespoons
olive oil
1
cup
plus 1 tablespoon water
approximately 110° Fahrenheit plus more, if dough is too dry
Instructions
Whisk together all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Add oil and water and mix until a nice soft dough forms. If dough is too dry, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time.
Knead approximately 2-5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place dough in a large, greased mixing bowl and flip over so the greased side is facing up.
Cover tightly with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour or until dough has doubled in volume.
Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a rough ball.
Spray 2 large pieces of plastic wrap with nonstick cooking spray or coat with oil.
Wrap each ball of dough in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. Date and label the bag.
Freeze for 1-3 months.
Thaw in refrigerator 1 day before using.
Allow pizza dough to stay at room temperature for 1 hour before using.
