Instructions
- 1Add Ingredients
Add 3 grams of yeast, 12 grams of sugar, 120 grams of flour, 70 grams of milk, and 5 grams of butter into the stand mixer bowl.
Tip: Make sure all ingredients are measured accurately for the best dough texture. - 2Knead the Dough
Use a stand mixer to knead the ingredients together until they form a smooth and consistent dough.
Tip: Kneading develops the gluten necessary for a soft and fluffy pizza crust. - 3Roll the Crust
Take the smooth dough and roll it out into a uniform round pizza crust.
Tip: Roll evenly to ensure the crust bakes at the same rate across the entire circle. - 4Shape the Border
Pinch a decorative border around the outer edge of the pizza crust with your fingers.
Tip: Creating a raised border helps contain the sauce and cheese toppings while baking. - 5Dock the Crust
Use a fork to poke small holes evenly across the surface of the pizza crust.
Tip: Docking prevents the dough from bubbling up excessively during baking. - 6Add Tomato Sauce
Add a layer of tomato sauce onto the prepared pizza crust and spread it evenly across the surface.
Tip: Leave a small clean border around the edge for the crust handle. - 7Add Mozzarella Cheese
Sprinkle an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the tomato sauce-covered pizza crust.
Tip: Spread the cheese evenly to ensure a nice, gooey layer across the entire pizza. - 8Add Toppings
Arrange bacon slices, sweet corn, and red bell pepper pieces on top of the cheese layer.
Tip: You can customize the toppings based on your personal preferences. - 9Add Final Cheese Layer
Add an extra layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the bacon and vegetable toppings before baking.
Tip: Adding cheese on top helps lock in the toppings and creates a golden, bubbly finish.
