pizza dough

Pizza Pizza Pizza! Just about every pizza is good, and just about everything is good on pizza. From breakfast pizza all the way to desert pizza it is for sure a favorite in the house, and we have it at least once a week. The basis of all pizza is of coarse the crust, and I love this pizza dough recipe because it checks all the boxes for a great simple pizza dough.

It’s simple and quick to make,

refrigerates well to make later,

and the crust on it is amazing. Can

be nice and browned without

being too crunchy on the bottom

or having that cardboard crust that

you don’t even want to pass on to

the dogs.
