Pizza Dough

Another experiment based on a published recipe from Fleischmann’s and once again I tweaked it. I have made this dough several times now and I like it with the substitution of bread flour for part of the all purpose flour. Give it a try, you won’t be dissapointed!

  That is awesome! I’m glad you liked it Paul. Now you have to try the No Knead Dutch Oven Bread sometime… I have been snacking on the second loaf in as many weeks! 😉
