Great for beginners, we like to get the whole family involved in this one. Experiment with different toppings and create your own favourites. Bakers with children might like to try our Stuffed Mini Pizzas, also made with Allinson olive oil dough. Method MIX Mix the flour, yeast, sugar and salt in a big bowl. Mix the water and oil together, then stir in with a cutlery knife. KNEAD Tip onto a lightly flour dusted surface and knead for 10 minutes (or use the dough hook attachment on your mixer for 5 minutes). RISE Lightly grease the mixing bowl with some oil. Put the dough back in, cover the bowl with a clean tea towel and leave to rise until doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 240°C (fan 220°C, gas mark 9). SHAPE Divide the dough into 4 pieces – keep others under the tea towel to stop them drying out. Roll a piece of dough to as thin as you can get it on a lightly floured surface. Lift carefully onto a floured baking sheet or pizza stone and finish with your favourite toppings. BAKE Bake for 10-15 minutes, until crisp and golden on top.

So easy to do as well and my little one loves to help! 16 February 2020 5 star rating I was so pleased this pizza dough worked! delighted. I only had white castor sugar but it still worked. Delighted, tastes nice 17 November 2019 5 star rating I’ve made lots of bread from this site but its the first time I’ve made my own pizza, I’m glad I did they were absolutely delicious. I made one cheese ham and pineapple for myself and one ham and mushroom for the wife without cheese because she doesn’t like cheese and they were both superb. To me they were better then having them delivered. They will be great for those summer BBQ’s especially if you’ve got a pizza oven on your BBQ 11 September 2019 4 star rating Looks easy, can it be frozen.

Bread flour has higher gluten levels than culinary flours such as plain or self-raising. Very strong bread flour has an even higher gluten level so can be used to produce a higher rise loaf. Good for white loaves, pizza dough and pasta. 1 Sachet Allinson's Easy Bake Yeast or Allinson's Time Saver Yeast Perfect to use in bread makers and hand baking this yeast, gives your dough a quick rise, eliminating the need to 'knock back.' The dough will only require one kneading and one period of proving. The yeast can be added with the flour straight from the pack and will become activated as soon as it comes into contact with the liquid. 1 tsp Billinngton's Unrefined Golden Caster Sugar This is the highest quality caster sugar available and is a great natural alternative to refined caster sugar. It has a warm golden colour from its unrefined nature and is fine grained with a subtle buttery taste, making it perfect for deliciously light sponges, shortbread and macaroons. 2 tsp Salt 300ml Warm Water 50ml Olive Oil Utensils Mixing Bowl Tea Towel Rolling Pin Pizza Tray/Stone Recipe Alternatives Mozzarella and Pesto Pinwheels Mozzarella and Pesto Pinwheels Total 1h 5m Serves 12 Skill Easy Diet Rating No ratings yet Plaited cheese and herb bread Plaited cheese and herb bread Total 1h 0m Makes 1 Skill Intermediate Diet Rating 5 star rating Blueberry mojito cocktail Blueberry mojito cocktail Total 10m Serves 2 Skill Easy Diet Rating No ratings yet
