Our family enjoys Pizza Night once a week, and because of our financial hardships, we’ve stopped ordering pizza as takeout in favor of making pizza at home.

Pizza Dough Ingredients

¾ cup warm water
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 ½ tsp salt
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white whole-wheat flour
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp active dry yeast
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning (optional)

Pizza Dough Directions

Set your bread machine to its dough setting. Place all ingredients in your bread machine pan in the order listed. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to make the dough. Makes 1 pound of pizza dough.
