Beer Pizza Dough Recipes

BEER PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the pepperoni and bacon until evenly browned. Mix in the mushrooms, onion, and green pepper. Cook and stir about 5 minutes, until tender.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, mix the ingredients from the skillet with the tomato sauce and beer. Season with garlic, oregano, thyme, and salt. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 15 minutes, until slightly thickened. Spread over the 2 pizza crusts, and top with cheese.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.

BEER PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
• Pour in the beer and mix well.
• The dough will be sticky.
• Spread a handful of flour on your work surface and dump the dough onto it.
• Tiss the dough around to coat it with flour and prevent it from sticking.
• Knead it 2 or 3 times to make it pliable.
• Shape the dough into a ball and divide it in two if you are making 2 thin crust pizzas.
• For a deep dish pie do not divide.
• Grease your pizza pan with oil and use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a circle.
• Brush crust with olive oil lightly and then add your sauce and toppings.
• Bake for 12- 15 minutes or until golden brown on top.

QUICK BEER PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Mix and knead together all the ingredients - by hand, mixer or bread machine - until you've made a smooth, soft dough. Cover the dough, and allow it to rise for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 500F with a pizza stone (if you are using one) on a lower rack.
• Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a 10" to 12" round.
• Place the rounds on parchment paper, if you're going to use a pizza stone. Or place the dough on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Transfer the pizzas, parchment and all to the baking stone. Or place the pans in the oven. Bake for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, top as desired, and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the bottom crust is crisp and the cheese is bubbly and browned.
• Remove from the oven, and serve hot.
