PIZZA DOUGH 
This dough can be used for more than just the obvious – check out our 
recipes for Sausage Bread or Broccoli Rabe Bread on pages 37 and 38.
Makes ¾ pound dough (two 9-inch crusts, or one 
14-inch crust)
1. In a liquid measuring cup dissolve yeast and sugar in 
warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. 
2. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the 
food processor. Add the fl our, olive oil and salt. With 
the machine running on Low, pour the liquid mixture 
through the feed tube as fast as the fl our absorbs it. 
Process until the dough cleans the sides of the work 
bowl and forms a ball. Continue to process for 30 
seconds to knead the dough. Dough may be slightly 
sticky. 
3. Lightly coat the inside of a large bowl with olive oil. 
Add dough and turn to coat in oil and cover bowl 
tightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until 
doubled in size, about 1 hour.
4. Place dough on a lightly fl oured surface and punch 
down. Form into desired crust size(s) as directed by 
appropriate recipe.
