Ingredients
- 3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 pkg (2 ¼ tsp ) active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm Firestone Walker's Mind Haze IPA (or any pale ale or IPA, around 110°F)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm craft beer and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.
- Mix Dough: Stir until the dough begins to come together, then knead on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Shape Dough: Punch down the dough and divide it into desired portions. Roll each portion into a ball and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Prepare for Baking: Roll out the dough to your desired thickness and top with your favorite pizza toppings.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Bake the pizza on a preheated pizza stone or baking sheet for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
