"This is very easy to make and delicious. The original recipe came from my bread machine book, but I added to herbs for an even better tasting crust."

3. When dough is finished, remove from bread pan and pat out onto pizza pans and top with your favorite pizza toppings.
4. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 min.

I've made this so many times, and it always comes out perfect! I add lots of spices (garlic, the Italian herbs, a lil red pepper, sometimes even a lil parmigiana if the mood takes me) <br/><br/>It turns out fluffy, flavorful, and makes just the right amount every time :)

This was great, I used it to make some deep dish pizzas in 2 small round cake pans. It was so good. I can't wait to make it into focaccia bread. Mine was a little sticky but I was measuring an a hurry so I am sure it was my fault.

This was a great recipe - I've been systematically trying as many as I can, to find the "right" one. I can stop now. Perfect. Once the dough cycle was done, I punched it down and let it rise again, then prebaked it prior to topping it. Delish!

Very easy to make, my family loved it. I made three "thin crust" pizzas with this recipe...about 11 inches each. Thanks!

I used this dough to make pepperoni bread #25135 by Debe. It came out great. I used a blend of italian spices, very tasty. Next time I will make pizza with it. I also think it would make a tasty foccacia type bread. I love that it's made in the bread machine. thanks for sharing.
