Follow The Directions

01

Step
7 mins

In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand for 5-7 minutes, until the yeast activates and a creamy foam develops on the surface.

02

Step
2 mins

In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, bread flour, corn oil, and salt. Gradually add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.

03

Step
8 mins

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes, adding additional all-purpose flour as needed to prevent sticking, until the dough is smooth and elastic.

04

Step
2 hrs

Lightly grease a large bowl with vegetable oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours, or until doubled in size.

05

Step
1 mins

Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release the air. It's now ready to be pressed into your deep-dish pizza pan and topped with your favorite ingredients.

For a crispier crust, preheat your pizza pan in the oven while it's preheating.
The warmth of your kitchen will affect the rising time of the dough. Adjust accordingly.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of flour for a unique flavor and texture.
