1 egg
60g butter or margarine, melted
Cream yeast and sugar together in a small bowl. Add milk and allow to stand in a warm
place until mixture begins to froth. Using the processing bowl fitted with universal ‚s‘ blade,
process flour, salt, egg and butter or margarine until combined (approximately 5-10 se-
conds). Add yeast mixture to processing bowl and process until mixture forms a dough
(approximately 10-15 seconds). Remove processing blade. Place dough onto a floured
surface and knead lightly until smooth. Place dough into a greased bowl, cover and allow to
rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
Turn dough out of bowl and knead lightly. Divide dough in half and shape each piece into a
ball. Roll out dough to fit 25cm pizza trays. For a thin pizza crust: Spread prepared pizza
dough with tomato sauce and assorted toppings. For a thick pizza crust: Allow prepared
dough to rise on pizza tray until doubled in height. Spread with assorted toppings. Bake at
230 °C for 20-30 minutes until bubbly and golden.
Note:
This pizza can be prepared and frozen, unbaked. Place pizza in a preheated
oven at 230 °C allowing an additional 10 minutes baking time.
