Simple Pizza Dough Recipe for the Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker
For those who want to make their own pizza dough from scratch, here’s a super simple recipe that yields a soft, chewy crust perfect for your Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker or the Toastmaster Extra-Large Oven.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 1/2 cups warm water (about 110°F)
- 3 1/2 - 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions:
- Activate the Yeast: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until the mixture is foamy.
- Mix the Dough: Add the olive oil, salt, and 2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine. Gradually add the remaining flour, about 1/2 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. You can add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Let it Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- Prepare for Pizza: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Divide it into portions that fit your Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker, roll out to your desired thickness, and add your toppings.
- Cook in the Pizza Maker: Follow the instructions for the Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker to cook your pizzas to perfection.
Quick Pizza Dough Hack Using Premade Naan or Greek Pita
For a faster, hassle-free option, you can use store-bought ready dough, naan bread or Greek pita as your pizza base! All three of these options provide a delicious, chewy crust that works wonderfully in the Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker.
How to Use Premade Naan or Greek Pita for Pizza:
- Preheat the Pizza Maker: Make sure your Pixar Pizza Planet Pizza Maker is ready to go.
- Prepare Your Base: Take your premade naan or Greek pita and place it in the pizza maker.
- Add Toppings: Spread your sauce (like marinara or pesto), add cheese, and load up your favorite toppings.
- Heat & Crisp: Close the lid and let it cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the base is crisp to your liking.
- Enjoy: Cut into slices and serve immediately!
Why Naan or Pita Works: Using naan or Greek pita as a pizza base is perfect for a quicker option, and their slightly thicker, chewy texture holds up well to toppings. Plus, there’s no waiting for dough to rise!
