Herb Pizza Dough
Homemade herb pizza dough adds tons of flavor to your pizza night! You'll love this easy-to-make dough.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water divided
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour divided, plus more as needed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mixed herbs such as oregano, basil, and parsley
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- Pour 1/4 cup warm water into a large bowl and sprinkle active yeast over the top. Let sit while it dissolves.
- Once dissolved, add 2 cups flour, the herbs, olive oil, salt, and remaining water. Mix together to form a cohesive dough, adding remaining 1/2 cup flour as you go.
- Knead dough by hand or with a stand mixer, adding just enough flour to prevent sticking to surface, until dough is smooth. (This should take about 5 minutes by hand.)
- Cover and let rise 30-60 minutes, until doubled.
- Prepare your toppings while the dough rises. Roll out dough onto pan, top, and bake pizza at 450°F for 15-20 minutes.
