Ingredients

2 cups All-Purpose Flour may need more depending on climate

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Spray a 16-inch pizza pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour [2 cups], baking powder [1 teaspoon], salt [1/2 teaspoon], and granulated sugar [1 teaspoon].
In a separate bowl combine oil [2 tablespoons] and hot water [1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon].
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing as you go. Continue mixing until the dough comes together and is no longer sticky. You may need to add more flour or water 1 tablespoon at a time to reach a workable consistency.
When the dough has come together, cover with a towel and set in a warm place for 10 minutes.
Place dough onto prepared 16-inch pizza pan and press or roll until it is at the edge of the pan, all the way around.
Trim any dough that is hanging over the edges of the pan.
Let rest for 5 minutes. If there has been any shrinkage in size, roll the dough to the edge of the pan again.
Place in preheated oven for 5 to 10 minutes or until the crust is beginning to brown in spots. Leave the oven set to 425 degrees F.
Remove from oven and place on a heatproof work area.
Cover with favorite sauce [1 to 2 cups], followed by mozzarella cheese [2 cups or more], then topping of your choice.
Place back in 425 degrees F oven, bake until cheese and toppings have reached your desired doneness.
Carefully remove from the oven and cut into your desired shape.

Notes

Recipe for homemade pizza sauce can be found here.
This no yeast pizza dough is best when rolled thin.
Recipe may be doubled and cooked in 2 pans. Rotate pizza crusts from top rack to bottom rack halfway through both cooking times.
Reheat this pizza in a 350⁰F oven until the cheese is bubbly again, reheat in a non-stick skillet set over medium-high heat, covered for 5 minutes, remove lid and continue cooking until crust is crisp, or microwave for 30 to 60 seconds.
Nutritional data is for crust only. Toppings must be calculated separately.
If using our easy pizza sauce recipe, 1/4 cup of sauce would be 63 calories. That sauce would cover the 2 slices of pizza. The way I make a pizza uses about 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese for each serving, around 168 calories. So the total for 1/4 of a cheese pizza using this dough would be about 523 calories. Additional calories will vary based on chosen toppings.
