5 Minute Artisan Pizza Dough Recipe

How to Make 5 Minute Artisan Pizza Dough

1. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons (7g) salt, and 1 teaspoon (2g) instant yeast.
2. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups (355ml) lukewarm water, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 1-2 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
5. Preheat your oven to its highest setting (usually 500-550°F or 260-280°C). Place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to preheat as well.
6. Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out a portion of the dough to your desired thickness and shape.
7. Transfer the dough to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
8. Add your favorite pizza sauce, cheese, and toppings.
9. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
10. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
