Low on yeast, or just don't know how to use it? This no yeast pizza dough recipe makes the crispiest, fluffiest crust that you won't want to pass on to your designated crust person!
In a large bowl, whisk the all purpose flour, 00 flour, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the middle and pour in the olive oil and yogurt. Use your hands to mix in the dry ingredients until a shaggy dough forms. Slowly begin to pour in the lukewarm water and knead the dough. Knead for 4-7 minutes until the dough is smooth.
Lightly oil the bowl and cover the dough. Allow it to rest for one hour. After the dough rests split it in half and form a ball with the dough.
Baking with Pizza Stones
Place the pizza stones into the middle rack of your oven. Preheat the oven to 500°F+, or as hot as your oven can go. Lightly flour a smooth surface and dip your fingertips in olive oil. Begin to spread the dough out with your fingertips from the middle outwards. Once it gets to about 5 inches wide, slip your knuckles under the edge of the crust and hold the pizza dough in the air. Move your knuckles along the pizza, allowing gravity to stretch out the dough until it forms a 9-in circle.
Dust a pizza peel with semolina. Place the dough on the pizza peel and ensure the bottom gets a full coating to prevent sticking. Try shimmying the pizza peel to see if the dough is sticking anywhere.
Build your pizza with the desired toppings. Once the oven is thoroughly heated, shimmy the pizza on to the pizza stones. Bake for 13 minutes, or until the crust is golden. Use the peel, or alternatively a spatula, to remove the pizza. Serve immediately.
Baking in a Cast Iron Pan
Preheat the oven to 500°F+, or as hot as your oven can go with the rack in the middle. Use a paper towel to generously oil a 9-10in cast iron pan. Put the pizza dough in the center and begin to spread out the dough all the way to the edges with your fingertips.
Build your pizza with the desired toppings. Once the oven is thoroughly heated, place the cast iron pan into the oven and bake for 13 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Notes
If you don't have pizza stones, shape the pizza and build it on the back on a baking sheet. Once the pizza is built and the oven is preheated, place the baking sheet with the pizza on it in the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes.
