making Mom’s Pizza Dough dry mix in a bread machine

Making Mom’s Pizza Dough dry mix in a bread machine is quick and easy. Because the mix comes with an instant yeast package, I can use the quick dough setting on my bread machine and have pizza dough ready in 45 minutes.

The step by step process includes:

Step 1

Pour 1 1/4 cup water into the bread machine. Add the flour mix. Create a well in the middle and empty the yeast packet into it. Turn on machine and wait.

Step 2

When the bread machine is done, the dough should have risen almost to the top of the pan. If not, let it sit some more. Because the machine is a little warm from use, the dough will continue to rise nicely.

Step 3

Remove the dough from the machine and cut in half. Form into nice balls. You can either use them right away or store them.

Step 4

If freezing or refrigerating the dough, lightly coat in olive oil and place in a plastic bag. Be sure to allow enough room in the bag for the dough to rise as it thaws. Use within 2-3 days if refrigerated and within 3 months frozen.
