KT asked:

I would like to make a pizza, but I don’t have pizza dough because the one I was going to use went bad. I could make some, but that takes too much time and I don’t have any yeast. Any help is appreciated!

    You can use biscuits, just smuch them all together like you would a pizza dough. Scotts Mar

    The best pizza is made from a loaf of French bread, split longways, toasted, and the cheese, sauce, vegetables, and cooked toppings heaped on top.
    Warm in oven or under broiler. soxrcat

    you could go out and buy the package pizza crust where you just add water and mix you could also get the refrigerated crust or you could go to a pizza place and maybe ask for some dough Kelly

    You can use toast as a crust, I do it so there are mini pizza’s(if I don’t have the stuff for dough making), it doesn’t keep over night though, due to the bread soaking up the sauce. Works though! SarahP

    i can suggest a Homemade Pizza Crust (Dough)

    All Purpose Flour – 1 cup (125 g)
    Chapati Flour – 1/4 cup (45 g)
    Fine Sooji/Semolina Powder – 1/4 cup (45 g)
    Salt – 1/2 tsp
    Black Pepper – 1/8 tsp or to taste
    Garlic Powder – 1/2 tsp
    Sugar – 1/2 tsp
    Yeast – 1 tsp
    Warm Water – 3/4 cup
    Olive Oil – 1/2 tsp
    All Purpose Flour – 4-5 tbsp (for kneading)

    1. Add Sugar and Yeast to Warm Water and mix until yeast is dissolved. Cover and let the mixture rest until it becomes frothy (5-10 minutes).
    2. Add All-purpose flour, Chapati Flour, Fine Sooji, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper and Salt to a mixing bowl and mix through.
    3. Add Yeast mixture slowly to the dry ingredients and form a dough (it will be sticky).
    4. Once the dough comes together, sprinkle 1-2 Tbsp of All-purpose flour and knead the dough until a soft ball forms.
    5. Coat the dough ball with Olive Oil, cover and keep in a warm place for 1 hour to rise (An oven heated to 180 F/ 82 C and turned off is perfect).
    6. Lightly Oil fingers and punch down the dough. Form it into a ball again, cover and replace in the oven for 1 more hour to rise.
    7. Sprinkle all-purpose flour and start to knead the dough for 4-5 minutes. Keep sprinkling dry flour as and when the dough becomes sticky.
    8. Divide the dough into 2 portions (for 2 medium size pizzas) and roll it out with a rolling pin or by hand. Keep sprinkling dry flour to help the rolling process.
    9. Preheat oven to highest possible temperature (550 F/ 288 C). If using a pizza stone, heat the stone with the oven.
    10. Sprinkle Corn Meal on the stone or pan and place rolled out dough over the corn meal.
    11. Bake for 4-5 minutes (until crust is light golden).
    12. Remove from oven and spread with pizza sauce, cheese and your choice of toppings.
    13. Bake until cheese is melted and light golden.

    Tip: If dough is too soft to work with, coat with oil, wrap it in plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to harden. Preetha

    you can use tortillas,
    (the ingredients might sound weird but if you read the recipe you might be able to use the same method to build your pizza with the stuff that you like)

    pitas also work, naan, iceycalm101

    Just make the damn dough. Good cooking takes time, and trust me, it will be worth it. If you don’t want to take the time to make a pizza, call a domino’s. Carl
