This is my go to pizza crust whenever I'm in a hurry to make a homemade pizza.
I'd like to share some tips: I would add in an extra pinch of salt and 1 tsp of garlic powder to the mix, pre bake the crust with the pizza sauce for 5 mins (highest setting / fan assisted oven) then I will add the cheese and the rest of the topping and finish baking it in the oven. This will prevent the crust from being soggy and underbaked.

I'm floored . This pizza dough recipe was better than the ones that had me measuring, proofing, etc .

Thanks for sharing this recipe with us. We just made this, chicken barbecue pizza. My son loves it. He said that this is the best homemade pizza. Will make this again. On the video it says 2 1/4 cups of bread flour but on the written recipe it says 2 1/2 cups of flour. I followed yours which is 21/4 cups of bread flour. Used 1 1/2 teaspoons of active dry yeast from the jar equivalent to .25 oz of 1 package ADY. Added some garlic powder on the flour and additional pinch of salt . It turned out really good. Thanks again 😊.

I never usually come on YouTube videos, I tried this today. And OMG. This is the THE BEST and easiest receipe everrr !!! Thank you so so much for sharing such an amazing recipe. My pizza came out delicious ❤️

Terrific Nicole!! I used to get excited about making pizza until you get to the part in the recipe, “put in the fridge for 24 hours”. 😩. I am ready to give this a try and see how it works! Everybody remember, parchment paper is your friend!! Made pizza at a beach house once with no sheet pan, formed the pizza on the parchment and put it in the oven directly on the rack (very carefully). Came out great!! Thanks so much Nicole and I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday weekend! 😘

Oh my gosh. I cannot express to you how great this presentation was! Full of information without being long and/or confusing.

I will be making this tonight! Looks delicious. Thanks!

The quickest pizza dough has to be Greek yogurt + self rising flour!
Super quick and easy to throw together (no mixer needed at all)
- makes a crust with a great tender chew!

Thanks, Nicole!! Can't wait to try it. I've checked out a lot of pizza crust videos on YouTube. This was the best by far and the easiest to follow. Always enjoy watching you, Nicole. You're not only a talented chef but entertaining to listen to. Cheers!

I have been making my family's pizza recipe for as long as I can remember. It is quick too, but it is more like a thick bread instead of the thin stretchy dough like this one. I will say, this recipe is a keeper! I made 2 12"x14" square pizzas. I was able to stretch the dough super thin. (something my family's recipe can't do) The texture, taste and ease to make was all on point! Thank you for this recipe! It is going to be my new go to for a great fast meal! If y'all have looked at several recipes and said to yourself, " I don't want to wait 24-48 hours for my dough to sit in the frig like all these other recipes" well then you have to try this one. I seriously can't tell you how great this pizza turned out. I give this recipe the highest recommendation I can give.

I think they should put this recipe on the cover of the magazine! I think so many people would buy the magazine while waiting in line at the checkout. "Everyone" loves a good pizza!

[shelliestone]

Made this for the first time tonight! Wow! So good and so easy! Best homemade pizza I have made thus far! Thank you for sharing this and I love your videos!

[Foodielops]

I’m always like “I’m going to try a new pizza crust recipe” and then always end up back at this one because it’s EASY, FAST, and fricken good!

[bruzer]

This is the best pizza dough I have ever made. I don’t understand it. I’ve made pizza dough many times and every time, the dough is funky…this time it was absolutely perfect!

[chrisfoster]

I followed the written version and it was WONDERFUL!!!

[stacey]

We just made it! Kids loved it!!! Such a fun recipe and sooo easy and delicious!

[jimjewell]

I have been using this pizza recipe for years and it is great. We use homemade Alfredo sauce instead of the red sauce. Everyone likes the pizza better with the Alfredo sauce.. love watching your videos and the out takes at the end of them..

[debbiebare]

That pizza looks like it is full of perfect bites!!
Happy Easter, Nicole!! Love, love, love your videos!! ❤️
