We made this in our cooking class at the library. The kids had so much fun rolling out the dough. This is a great activity for your kids and gets the in the kitchen. Who knows, maybe they will eat something new.
1 TBSP yeast & 1 cup warm water
Heat oven to 425.
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1-2 TBSP olive oil
1 TBSP honey
Combine warm water to yeast and mix. Let stand while you get together the other ingredients.
In a medium bowl add the rest of the ingredients. Add yeast water to flour and mix until it becomes a ball. If dough seems wet add flour. If dough seems dry add a little water. The dough should not stick to your fingers. Let dough sit for 15 minutes.
Sprinkle flour on a baking sheet. Handle dough with floured hands and roll dough to fill your baking sheet. Once it is rolled out place in heated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes. Check it at 10 minutes. It should be ALMOST done.
You are now ready to put your toppings on: sauce, cheese, pepperoni, sausage, green peppers and/or whatever you choose. Bake for another 10 minutes or until you feel it is done.
Enjoy!
I’ve never tried the crust with honey in it. I’ll have to do that next time.
The honey gives it a little crisper of a crust and a browner crust.
