THE BEST PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar; add yeast and whisk until dissolved. Let stand until bubbles form on surface. In a large bowl, whisk 3 cups flour, salt, remaining 1 teaspoon sugar and, if desired, dried herbs. Make a well in center; add yeast mixture and oil. Stir until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead, adding more flour to surface as needed until no longer sticky and dough is smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a large greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes; transfer bowl to refrigerator and chill overnight. Allow dough to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes, before rolling.

DOUGHBOYS

Steps:

• Sponge: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water and stir in the flour. Allow the mixture to sit until quite bubbly, about 30 minutes.
• Mix together the white flour, rye flour and salt in a bowl. Stir 1 cup of this mixture and 1 cup of cold water into the sponge. Mix thoroughly and allow to sit another 30 minutes.
• Add the whole-wheat flour, chestnut flour and the olive oil. Knead the dough either by hand or in an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix until the dough is soft and elastic, about 5 minutes. You may need to add a little more flour if the dough is too wet, but you want a soft, slightly sticky dough. Very soft, moist dough makes the best crust!
• Put the dough in a large bowl, cover with a towel and allow it to rest in a warm place until it has doubled in size, about 2 hours. If you are making the dough a day before, put the bowl in the refrigerator and let rise slowly overnight.
• To cook the doughboys, preheat a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed pot, with enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 375 degrees F.
• Be sure to use a frying thermometer to be accurate. Pull the dough into odd shapes that look like elephant ears, then drop them into the fryer, in batches, and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip them over with a chop stick and cook the other side until golden brown, a few more minutes. Repeat the process until all of the dough is used. Arrange them on a serving platter and serve with jam, maple syrup, and powdered sugar. Sit down, get coffee and eat.
• Cook's Note: The dough usually made a day before using.

PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• Combine the bread flour, sugar, yeast and kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and combine. While the mixer is running, add the water and 2 tablespoons of the oil and beat until the dough forms into a ball. If the dough is sticky, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together in a solid ball. If the dough is too dry, add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth, firm ball.
• Grease a large bowl with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, add the dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm area to let it double in size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 2 equal pieces. Cover each with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let them rest for 10 minutes.

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). In a medium bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in flour, salt and oil. Beat until smooth. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat or roll into a round. Transfer crust to a lightly greased pizza pan or baker's peel dusted with cornmeal. Spread with desired toppings and bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let baked pizza cool for 5 minutes before serving.

THE FOLDED PIZZA PIE APPLE DOUGHBOY WITH CINNAMON GLAZE

Steps:

• For the dough: Stir together yeast, 1 cup warm water and 1 teaspoon granulated sugar to a stainless steel bowl. Whisk together and let sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add flour, oil, salt, remaining 1/2 cup water, 2 teaspoons sugar and yeast mixture to a stand mixer and stir to incorporate. Mix together on medium speed until all ingredients have been mixed well, 5 to 8 minutes. Portion dough into four 1-pound pieces and place in 4 freezer bags. Freeze immediately to stop the rising process. Dough is ready to use after 30 minutes in freezer. Thaw fully before using.
• For the apple filling: Melt 7 tablespoons butter in a 4-quart pot. Add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring mixture frequently to avoid scorching, until al dente.
• Meanwhile, make a roux by melting remaining tablespoon butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Once butter is melted, add flour. Turn the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until golden brown. Remove from heat.
• Add roux to apple mixture, little at a time, until desired consistency is achieved. Transfer apples to a cookie sheet to cool.
• For the cinnamon glaze: Place candy in a saucepan and enough water to cover. Let stand until candy has mostly dissolved, then heat mixture to a medium boil, stirring frequently. Cook until a thin syrup-like texture is achieved, about 15 minutes. (Candy mixture is extremely hot and can cause severe burns! Handle with care! If mixture is too thin, cook a little longer; if mixture is too thick, add a little more water.) Let cool and pour into a squeeze bottle.
• For the doughboy: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Roll a 5- to 6-ounce ball of thawed dough into a 4-inch square. Place 2 tablespoons apple filling in center of dough. Stretch opposite sides of dough up and pinch to seal until a rectangular "apple pillow" is made. Brush with butter, dust with cinnamon sugar and bake until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes, Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream; drizzle cinnamon glaze over doughboy and ice cream. Then, enjoy!
