Sourdough Pizza Crusts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Combine sourdough starter, flour, and salt in a bowl. Knead into a soft dough. Let rest for 30 minutes.
• Form the dough into a circle of your desired thickness and size. Place on a circular oven-safe pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dough looks dry, about 5 minutes. Brush all over with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Mix starter, 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and flour together in a mixing bowl until it blends and forms a ball (add more or less flour to adjust consistency; if you get it too dry just add a little more starter).
• Allow dough to rest for about 30 minutes (don't look for it to rise, just to get the dough where it is easier to roll).
• Roll out mixture on parchment paper or a lightly floured surface until it fits the size of your pan, turning the dough as you roll (if you want a more even circle).
• Par-bake the crust on a pizza stone or pizza sheet for about 7 minutes, then remove from oven.
• Before topping your pizza with any sauce, cheese, or toppings, brush the top of the crust all over with remaining olive oil (as needed), using a pastry brush (this helps keep soggy moisture out of the crust as it bakes).
• Top as desired and cook until browned and cheese is melted.
• If you use certain vegetables as a topping (onions are the first thing that comes to mind) you might want to cook those about halfway before topping the pizza with them (or they will be too crunchy).

Steps:

• Mix starter, flour, olive oil, and salt together in a bowl until mixture forms a ball. Let dough rest for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
• Roll out dough on parchment paper or a lightly floured work surface, rotating frequently, until it is the same size as the baking pan. Transfer to the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pale golden, about 7 minutes.

Steps:

• Sprinkle yeast into warm water and sugar.
• Stir and let stand until it because foamy.
• Mix in Oil, sourdough starter,salt and one half of the flour.
• Gradually add enough of the remaining flour to make a dough.
• Turn dough onto smooth, lightly floured surface.
• Knead until smooth and elastic.
• Put in lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat all sides, cover with a cloth and let rise until doubled. This will take about an hour.
• Punch down and shape into two pizza crusts.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Sprinkle pizza pan or baking stone with Corn meal before placing the crust on it.
• Prebake crust for 10 minutes.
• Remove from Oven.
• Brush crusts with olive oil and spread with tomato sauce, then top with toppings of your choice.
• Sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese, if desired.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes at 425 degrees. Might take longer depending how thick your toppings are.
• Prep time includes rising time.
• 8-10 servings per pizza crust depending on size of slices.

Steps:

• Combine flour, sourdough starter, water, oil, sugar, milk powder, yeast, and salt in a large bowl. Mix by hand until flour is incorporated. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Knead dough for 6 minutes; allow to rest for 6 minutes. Repeat 3 times.
• Transfer dough to an oiled pan; cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Separate dough into 6 equal rounds; let rest 10 minutes. Roll out each portion to desired crust size.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Cool on a rack; freeze in resealable plastic bags separated by parchment paper.
