This comes from a gorgeous friend of mine who shared this with me well over a decade ago. Use as a Pizza base or even for a Calzone. This really only needs 10 minutes to rise. I've made this hundreds of times for my four kids, better than store bought, fast and cheap!

How To Make betty's 10 minute pizza base

  • 1
    In a large bowl mix everything together. Remove from the bowl and knead on your bench dusted with flour until it comes together and is "glossy" - that should take about 3-5 minutes.
  • 2
    Pop the kneaded dough back into the bowl, cover with a warmed tea towel (sprinkle with a little water and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds). Place the bowl in a warm area of your house and let rise for 10 minutes.

    After 10 minutes, use as a pizza base, calzone or even foccacia bread. Bake at 400oF/200oC for 15-20 minutes.
