Pizza Dough With Beer Recipes

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk to combine beer, 2 tablespoons olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast. Fit bowl on electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add flour, and mix until dough is fairly stiff, about 10 minutes.
• On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Brush the inside of a large bowl with remaining tablespoon olive oil; transfer dough to bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place until dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Punch down dough, and transfer to a clean surface. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, divide dough into quarters; keep covered with plastic wrap.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
• Pour in the beer and mix well.
• The dough will be sticky.
• Spread a handful of flour on your work surface and dump the dough onto it.
• Tiss the dough around to coat it with flour and prevent it from sticking.
• Knead it 2 or 3 times to make it pliable.
• Shape the dough into a ball and divide it in two if you are making 2 thin crust pizzas.
• For a deep dish pie do not divide.
• Grease your pizza pan with oil and use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a circle.
• Brush crust with olive oil lightly and then add your sauce and toppings.
• Bake for 12- 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

Steps:

• Mix and knead together all the ingredients - by hand, mixer or bread machine - until you've made a smooth, soft dough. Cover the dough, and allow it to rise for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 500F with a pizza stone (if you are using one) on a lower rack.
• Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a 10" to 12" round.
• Place the rounds on parchment paper, if you're going to use a pizza stone. Or place the dough on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Transfer the pizzas, parchment and all to the baking stone. Or place the pans in the oven. Bake for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, top as desired, and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the bottom crust is crisp and the cheese is bubbly and browned.
• Remove from the oven, and serve hot.
