Thin Pizza Crust

Margo59's Note:

I'm a thin crust person and I found this on a web site (not sure which one). Very easy and bakes up crispy not soggy.

• Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 8 slices

• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
• 3/4 cup hot water

Directions:

1. Dissolve yeast and sugar in hot water.

4. Pour yeast mixture over flour mixture and mix well with a heavy spoon.
5. Turn onto floured surface and knead for 2 minutes.
6. Spread into a 12-14" circle.
7. (I do this directly onto a pizza stone with a marble rolling pin).
8. If you roll it out on a counter top, transfer to a greased pizza pan, stretching to edges.

10. Bake at 500 degrees for 8-12 minutes or until edges are golden.

This recipe is very easy. I just used the crust and it came out great. I made a breakfast pizza with a white sauce, cheese blend, eggs, onions and ham and topped it off with parmesan cheese. It was DE-LISH. Thanks Margo.

Fantastic crust! I added Penzy's pasta sprinkle to the dough and cooked the pizza on the grill. DH made the crust so thin you could almost see through it and it still held up. Crispy and chewy. Loved it! Thanks for posting!
