I wouldn’t say we have a great crust recipe but it’s a super fast and easy recipe to make. We throw this together all the time. For awhile, we made this pizza every Sunday right after church. Our favorite way to make our pizza is with Sweet Baby Ray’s Original BBQ sauce, chopped cooked chicken, mozzarella and gouda cheese. Everyone loves this pizza but it’s more in the ingredients than the crust. I’ll also include our red sauce recipe as it’s easy and quick as well. The dough makes 2 large pizzas or 3-4 medium/small pizzas. Make sure you make the crust thin as this dough does not work with a thick crust! If we only want one pizza, we put the other half rolled in flour into a zip lock bag. It can be refrigerated for about a week or frozen and later thawed.
7 Minute Pizza Dough
4 ½ cups flour
1 ¾ tsp salt
1 tsp yeast
¼ cup olive oil (optional)-we always use it
1 ¾ cup ice cold water
Mix in bread machine for 7 minutes. Makes 2-4 pizzas depending upon size.
Pizza Sauce
1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
A little less than one tablespoon oregano
1 tsp paprika
1 ½ tsp garlic (crushed/powdered) We usually use crushed
We cook our large pizzas in the oven at 425 degrees F for between 15-18 minutes

We have now found out that if we want a really great crust with this same dough, to just let it rise for 2 hours or so. Or, sometimes we make one pizza and still the remaining dough in the fridge in a ziplock for a few days. Then, when we make the next pizza it rises a lot more. Really excellent crust if you allow the dough to rise. It's an okay crust if you just kneed it for 7 minutes.
