Keyword: pizza, sourdough
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

  • 2 cups active sourdough starter
  • 1 ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cups flour to consistency
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • extra olive oil
  • Optional mix-ins: 1 teaspoon dried oregano basil, garlic powder, and Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Measure out and mix all ingredients in a large glass bowl until it forms a nice ball.
  • It will come together with a little flour on the outside. Cover and allow to rest for at least 45 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. If you are making 2 crusts, cut the dough in half here.
  • Grease the pan(s) using olive oil.
  • Place dough on the pan and spread by hand (keep your hands floured so it doesn't stick!).
  • Once the dough is spread, brush or spray the dough with additional olive oil. Note: The crust will shrink as it bakes so spread out to the edges as much as possible.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the the bottom is becoming golden brown (less time for thin crust).
  • Remove from oven and top with your favorite toppings. Return to oven and bake until the cheese is golden brown, approximately 8 minutes.
