Ingredients for a Single 12-14" Pizza

  • Fresh Dough - 8-11 oz (10-12" Pizzas)
  • Cornmeal - 1/2 tablespoon
  • Pizza Sauce - 1/4 cup
  • Cheese- 3/4 cup
  • Other Toppings - as desired

Pizza Dough Tips

  • DO NOT stretch or roll out your dough on the peel. Stretch your fresh, room-temperature dough on a flat, floured surface – a cutting board or on the countertop.
  • You can use store bought Pizza Dough, it can usually be found in the deli section of your local grocery store.
  • Let refrigerated dough sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before baking.
  • Frozen dough will vary, follow packaged instructions.
  • To shape by hand, press from the center outward avoiding the edges for a lighter, puffier crust.
  • If the dough keeps shrinking back, let it rest for 5–10 minutes.
  • If the dough tears, pinch it back together or let it rest for a few minutes.
  • A pizza roller creates a more uniform shape but may result in a less puffy crust.

Pizza Toppings Guide

  • Too many toppings or too much sauce can make the crust soggy and difficult to cook evenly.
  • Add fresh ingredients like basil and arugula after cooking for the best flavor.
  • Cheese matters! Fresh, high-moisture mozzarella works better than shredded mozzarella cheese.
