The BEST Pizza Dough Recipe - Fresh Milled Flour

[@tylerarellano7334]

My husband literally requests pizza basically every night thanks to this recipe!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Lol, and this is a healthier pizza version than anything we can get at a pizza place, bonus fresh milled flour pizza doesn't make me feel "ugh" like pizza used to do to me. Thanks so much! Happy Baking!

@@GrainsInSmallPlaces we were just saying the exact same thing last night after eating it. We both said “it’s so nice to be able to enjoy pizza and not feel horrible after.” He also said if tastes like a better version of Pizza Hut and gets better every time I make it 😆

HOLY MOLY!! This pizza crust is phenomenal!! I made one tonight and have another crust in the fridge for a day or two. The crust is fantastic. Thin, a little crispy, and a little chewy. And I’m pretty sure my dough was a little dry so I can’t imagine when it’s properly hydrated!! My husband loved it. We’re experimenting with pizza sauces so any recommendations are greatly appreciated!! Thank you, Kara!! DELICIOUS!

I made this tonight for dinner.....two pizza were devoured by 5 of my kids in a matter of 5 minutes. Best pizza crust I've ever made. I was worried when I gave up all purpose flour and started milling our own that my family wouldn't buy into whole wheat pizza crust but this wasn't making us miss anything!

We are big fans of the Food Saver reusable zip top bags. Be sure to get the ones with the black seal, they are sturdier. We use the little hand held sealer to remove the extra air. They are very easy to turn inside out to clean. We've reused them dozens of times and they are still going strong.

[@kellyy8114]

Really enjoying all your FMF recipes and excited to try this one! One tip I learned from another KZbinr that I like that gives an EXCELLENT crust is baking it in a cast iron pan if you have one. I put a little corn meal on the bottom, my pizza crust, top it and bake at 450°. If the bottom doesn't get quite done enough before the cheese is good, you can just set it on a low burner until it's the crispiness you want.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Thanks for the tip. We sometimes make it like that if we want a bit thicker crust, so maybe we will try it with a thinner crust too! Happy Baking!

Your videos inspire me to take a chance using my flour mill. I’ve made pizzas every which way but loose and was glad to see we share a Breville oven that I should try next. I can sort of see what rack you’re on, but wondered if you just use bake or convection or whatever you’re setting you’re using on whichever rack level. Thanks!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

We like to use the pizza rack that is noted on the front glass of the Breville. I like to go up to 480*F (the highest it will go) and use convection. We will bake it on the tray first for about 5-8 minutes, then remove the tray and finish baking straight on the grate! So good! I hope you love it! Let me know what you think! You can do it!

[@victoriae-pi9bb]

Love this! Can you tell me how long you “ Par bake” your pizzas that you freeze and how you cook them later after pulling out of the freezer? Ty

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I par bake the crust only so about 7-10 minutes at 450*F (just until it is firm. Then I let it cool, put the toppings on. Now it is just like a frozen pizza from the store. I bake from frozen 450*F for about 15-18 minutes or until cheese is nice and browned. Hope that helps. (To freeze, I wrap in foil, then plastic wrap, write on the outside the baking instructions, and my kids can bake them whenever.)

[@cleo_travels]

Do you have a pizza dough recipe that has a crispy crust? Thank you so much!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yes, this pizza dough recipe is great, because it will do both! Just bake it longer on the oven rack directly. (bake it on a pan until it can hold it's shape, then remove the pan.)

Hi Kara, thanks for this recipe. I was wondering, when you par bake and prep the pizzas for the kids to have later, what does that process look like? I would love to have some pizzas ready to go like that for when the grandkids come to spend the night!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I love to bake just the crust partially. So, I will bake the crust at 450*F for about 5-7 minutes, just until it can hold itself. Then, I pull it out and let it cool just a bit. I top with sauce, cheese, toppings, etc. Then I will wrap the whole thing in foil. If I plan to use it within a week or so, I will just leave it in the foil. If longer storage, I will wrap the foil in plastic wrap so it doesn't get freezer burnt. I like to write with a sharpie right on the foil baking instructions for my kids. -Preheat oven 450*F Remove foil, place directly on oven rack. Bake until cheese is browned and bubbly (10-15mins)

[@deborahcresswell1616]

Thank you so much! This helps a lot. Maybe when the grandkids are older we will do the toppings together and they’ll enjoy that but for now just having something so delicious to pull out and pop in the oven will be so convenient! I appreciate your sharing all your tips and tricks so much!!!!

[@suzyvance7328]

I'm so happy I found your channel.. I am new to milling wheat berries. For this recipe, you said to use 3.5-4 cups fresh milled flour. But you only milled 1 2/3 c hard white and 3/4 cup Kamut. Doesn't add up to 3.5-4 cups flour or do they after milled. If so then my confusion is over, lol.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I am happy you found me too! Welcome! Those measurements are for the whole wheat berry, the 3.5-4 cups is for the flour after milling. So, the weight of wheat berries milled will equal the weight of the flour. BUT, this is not the case for volume, so 1 cup of wheat berries will give you more than 1 cup of fresh milled flour. I hope that makes sense! Happy Baking!

[@itme7685]

I usually just throw in the ingredients and don’t use any recipe at all, but I found this looking to freeze some and I’m using fresh ground flour, so this will be helpful. I only have one of the Kitchen Aid attachments, so don’t do a lot of grain grinding. When I got my large bag of white wheat they only had soft white wheat. So, I’ll probably add a little gluten flour. I should get some more grains. There is a company Azure Standard on the other side of the mountains and they can deliver close to me.

Hi! I just found you! You’re very helpful because I’m a beginner! Beginner at sour dough and now fmf! What kind of mixer does you have? Can you show or tell me how certain wheat berries become a certain flour, this part is so confusing, I get the 6 types of wheat berries but what kind of flour does it become?

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Hi! I am glad you found me too! I believe I sent you an email with some of these answers, but fresh milled flour is a bit different, there is not a bread flour/ All-Purpose flour/ etc. It depends on the kind of wheat you mill into flour. This is my video on an All Purpose flour blend, you can use that on most things, but not breads.

I've made this dough for pizza but I most often I make up a double batch for fridge and freezer to make flatbreads in a cast iron skillets. I regularely make 6-8 rounds at a time to use as wraps, gyros or to dip in hummus. The dough is wet, so I roll them in all purpose einkorn flour. They come out perfectly soft, tender, chewy, and a little stretchy. So good! I'd love to try making with sourdough starter. Any thoughts on how much starter you would use?

Hii there.. I'm trying to make this amazing recipe now 😅... I used 380g hard white and 80g rye. Followed everything else to the T, but after 30 mins of kneeding it wasn't in a dough ball and it broke apart when trying the test. So I followed your suggestion in another comment of adding more water (I chose to add 1TBSP) and not adding flour - I'm currently kneeding again for 15mins haha. We'll see what happens.. I really just want Pizza for dinner lol 😣❤️

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I do like to work with a dough on the wetter side, and find that can often be the issue is too dry of dough. But if it started breaking apart after kneading it that long, it may be overkneaded. What are you using to knead? I am finding different mixers can give very different results.

[@tanikahutch]

@@GrainsInSmallPlaces thanks so much! I am using a larger Kichen aid with a hook attachment. I ended up adding more water on top of the 1 TBSP and I believe I reached the test ☺️.. it still didn't form a dough ball but it is stretchy and I've divided the dough! We'll see what happens!

I made this last week with sourdough starter instead of yeast and it was perfect! Making it again tonight but had to up it by 50%…my hungry kids demolished it last time! Thanks again!!

[@carriannrose]

If I use active yeast instead of instant yeast, do you know how I would alter the steps in the recipe, longer wait time or anything? I have active yeast (I am sure anyone that bakes already knows the answer but I am new to using it)

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

If you are using active dry yeast, you can hold out a bit of the liquid, and a pinch of sugar from the recipe. Then when the instructions tell you to let the dough rest before putting in the yeast, this is where you will activate your yeast. Take that small amount of liquid from the recipe and a pinch of sugar, put the yeast in a small bowl and stir. Let it sit while the dough sits (15 mins), it should get nice and foamy. Then when the recipe says to put the yeast in, put that mixture in, and start the kneading process. This is actually a pretty common question! Let me know how it goes! Happy Baking!

Check the consistency of your dough, and check for stretchiness. I will say it almost never needs more flour. I recommend watching my Focaccia Bread Masterclass (It's free), in that video I show the consistency and texture of the dough during several stages of kneading. And, I make my focaccia with my pizza dough, so it's the same dough! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ-noKWupqqal7csi=eiu0grzvBd__rqcO

I'm so excited about this but i'm having trouble getting the dough to come together. I'm also new at the FMF thing and have read how there is a learning curve. My dough is still just hanging around the bottom of the bowl but looks a bit smoother. I finally added a bit more flour but it's still not coming together. I'm probably up to 35 40 min of kneeding and it's only getting a little stretchy. I checked and i have followed the recipe exactly except for the bit more flour. Any ideas out there???

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I am guessing when it started to look smooth, that you had it right there. But, once more flour was added it made the dough too dry. FMF is very different than white flour, it needs to be a wetter dough.

[@beckyh543]

When doubling this recipe, should the kneading take longer? I get to a pretty good windowpane but after the rise the dough isn’t as stretchy and “breaks” when formed into a crust. I’ve been afraid that I’ll over knead it but I’m thinking I just need to keep going. I’m determined to figure it out! 😉

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yes, it may take a bit longer with more dough to knead, but it is always a bit different time for me every time I make it! You got this, go by the stretchy dough, it is more accurate than the time on the clock! 😊

Can you use freshly ground Spelt

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

You can sub the spelt in for the Kamut portion of the dough. :)

[@sherriegipson4701]

Can you par bake at 450 F then cool and freeze crust only? If so, how would I go about preparing from that point? Need to let thaw? Or could you just put on toppings and bake?

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yes, we par bake and make "frozen pizzas" all the time with it. We will bake the crust at 450*F for about 5-7 minutes (until it is stiff enough to hold itself. Then let it cool. After it cools a bit, we will put the sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings you wish. Then, cover it with foil and freeze. If it will be stored a long time in the freezer, we like to wrap it again with plastic wrap to protect from freezer burn. Then, we just bake it from frozen 450*F for about 12-18 minutes until the cheese is nice and browned. Enjoy!

Ok so question, you said you can pop the dough in the freezer, then later you said you like to par cook them. Which way is best? Which way do you prefer, or is it basically par cooking them for the kids.?

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

It is all about preference. I have done it many ways. I have even had both frozen dough, and frozen premade pizzas in my freezer at once. One is more to have convenience foods ready to go for those days you need a fast meal, or so the kids can make them. Here is my frozen pizza video talking about making them and freezing them ready to bake. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipi6hoGuZbeeb7ssi=muUHzxlM6nD7LF8C

@@GrainsInSmallPlaces thank you so much. I read all of the other comments, then listened to your videos a number of times and finally caught that you do both. Made it today, put 2 pre baked ones in the freezer and made one for supper and used a pizza stone. We ate the whole thing. Your recipes work great. We love the hamburger buns.

Will this work with dry active yeast if I don’t have instant yeast? #TeamPineapple as well!!!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yay! Pineapple! Yes, you can use active dry yeast, just use some of the liquid from the recipe, and a pinch of sugar in a small bowl, then stir in the active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes (it should get nice and foamy), during that first rest period in the recipe before the yeast goes in. Then, when the recipe calls to put the instant yeast in, put that mixture in, and continue the recipe.

[@juneo5795]

I'm team pineapple too!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yes! It is just such a perfect balance of sweet, tart, and savory! :)

[@johertel]

Dud you let the dough come to room temp before you started shaping it into a crust?

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

It is best to let it come to room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. But, honestly, I have made it right from the fridge too when we are in a pinch. Let me know how it turns out! Thanks!

[@8080purple]

So you don’t have to let it rise after you take it out of fridge? You said something about letting it sit. I didn’t actually see this information on the written recipe I have.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I have done it both ways. It is best to let it sit to come to room temperature for 1-2 hours before working with it. BUT, in a pinch it still works wonderfully right from the fridge. 😊

20 min kneading and mine doesn't pass test dont know if I should knead longer or add more flour

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

maybe need to add a little water. I find that dough that won't come to a window pane sometimes just needs a little more liquid. But, I have had to knead for up to 30 minutes to get it. It will still be pretty good if you don't get the window pane, but the texture is even better if you can get it there. 😉

[@gracecosenza9162]

@@GrainsInSmallPlaces I have to say even tho I did not have the window pane it was delicious whole family loved it, I did add more flour cause I wasn’t sure what to do, I have a kitchen aid and it started to wrap around the hook I kneaded for 40 min, dough didn’t break when I pulled apart but was not nice a stretch like yours. So do you think I should have added more water instead of flour? I will try to figure out a way to post my pizza it was beautiful. Thank for the quick response

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I'm so happy every loved it! I would try more liquid next time. ❤️

[@beckylongest2628]

Also, I'm team Pineapple as well 😉

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yay! It just has the perfect flavor balance!

What is that mixer

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

This is a Bosch Compact mixer, it has unfortunately been discontinued. But, here is my review of it, sometimes you can find one on market place or thrift stores. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJLGaHqvZbZna6csi=Ql4rkCO0NQV-gXoy

[@shirleysmith2044]

Thank you so much for your video. You might want to investigate your Olive Oil as I guarantee it is not what you think it is. Use organic butter (Costco), MTC oil, high quality(the real olive oil) or ideal for cooking coconut oil.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Thank you! 😃

[@tamster1859]

Rose homestead sent me over.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Yay! Welcome! We are doing a fun collab this month!

[@pamobrian259]

Need a little more instruction on how you froze so you cooked it for way or what I’m not sure what you’re saying

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

I actually made a whole video on making these into frozen pizzas! kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipi6hoGuZbeeb7ssi=oCmK9KtFpwaV63Li

[@gsh4485]

It would be nice if you could place your recipe in the comment section rather than giving only a link. Many do not want to print it out but see the ingredients and watch. Then IF they want to print it, they can go to your link and scroll and scroll and scroll down to the recipe.

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Thank you for your suggestion! I do have a link at the top of each recipe post that will take you right to the recipe, also a link right at the top to print recipe, and you can see the whole recipe in the print preview without printing. This will help people from needing to scroll so much. Happy Baking!

[@jewlstime]

I cooked my first two pizzas at 500* just the way they recommended 8min with the parchment and 8min with it off. And the pizzas almost burned!! The second two pizzas went in at 450* with the 8min on the parchment paper and 8min with it off- and it was much better onlyyyy the pizza crust was still too think in some areas. And the bottoms weren’t done the way theirs are in the video… so I am unsure if I should cook it a bit longer without the parchment paper at the end ? Over all very happy but def want to make it better next time! Question : is everyone making 3 pizzas out of the recipe or just 2 ??

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

It depends on the size of the pizzas you want to make. I make 2 very large pizzas, or three medium size, or even 4 small ones. It also depends on how thick you like your crust. If the bottoms weren't done it is likely that you may need to place them on a lower rack in your oven. Every oven is a bit different, some run hotter and some run cooler. Just keep an eye on them! Happy Baking!

[@jewlstime]

@@GrainsInSmallPlaces thank you!! about how do you make your two very large sizes?

[@sandrasupplee2560]

I’ve made this several times on a pizza stone and it worked fine, but this time I used parchment paper (I thought it would get crispier underneath). It was a hot, sticky mess! I couldn’t get the paper off to save my life. We ended up eating paper-lined pizza. Never again!

[@GrainsInSmallPlaces]

Oh no! I wonder why that happened. We like to start on the paper, then pull the paper out and bake it straight on the oven rack as soon as it can hold itself. Also, it helps to sprinkle a bit of rice flour or semolina on the parchment paper under the dough as well. But, if you prefer to make it on the pizza stone, that is also a wonderful option!
