Pizza Hut Dough Recipe

Prep Time 15 minutes
Resting Time 45 minutes
Servings: 1 large pizza
Calories: 70

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/3 cup water
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp cornmeal
  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup bread flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 174 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 3/8 tsp msg
  • 1 1/2 tsp dry yeast (add 174 tsp more for breadier dough)

Equipment

  • Food processor or dough hook (or it can be done by hand)

Method
 

If Using a Food Processor
  1. Place the water, sugar, salt, and olive oil in the bowl of the food processor and pulse to dissolve the sugar and salt. Add yeast, bread flour, all-purpose flour, and all of the other dry ingredients. Process until a soft ball forms. Remove the dough from the machine and allow it to rest covered with a tea towel for about 45 minutes.
If Using a Dough Hook and Mixer
  1. Place the water, sugar, salt, and olive oil in the bowl of the mixer and dissolve the sugar and salt. Stir in the yeast, bread flour, all-purpose flour, and all of the other dry ingredients. Knead with the dough hook to form a soft, but not-too sticky dough (about 8 minutes). Remove the dough from the machine and allow it to rest covered with a tea towel for about 45 minutes.
If Preparing by Hand
  1. Place the water, sugar, salt, and olive oil in a bowl and dissolve the sugar and salt. Stir in the yeast, all-purpose flour, and all of the other dry ingredients. Knead to form a soft, but not-too sticky dough (about 8-l0 minutes). Allow the dough to rest, covered with a tea towel for about 45 minutes.

Notes

  • It may take longer than 10 minutes to knead the dough, especially if you're doing it by hand. The important thing to remember is that the semi-sticky consistency of the dough is what you're aiming for.
