Description

A versatile crazy dough recipe that can be transformed into pizzas, cinnamon rolls, dinner rolls, or even flatbreads. Soft, pillowy, and easy to make, this is the ultimate all-purpose dough for both sweet and savory creations.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (480g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons (7g) instant yeast
  • 1 cup (240ml) warm milk
  • ½ cup (120ml) warm water
  • ¼ cup (60ml) olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons (25g) sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons (9g) salt
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: If baking, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). For pizzas, preheat to 450°F (230°C).
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together warm milk, water, yeast, sugar, egg, and olive oil. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until dough forms.
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Lightly grease a bowl and place the dough inside, covering with plastic wrap or a towel.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Let the dough rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size. Shape into pizza bases, rolls, or buns.
  5. Cook to Perfection: Bake pizzas for 12–15 minutes, rolls for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  6. Finishing Touches: Brush with melted butter for rolls or olive oil for savory bakes.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Tear into the warm, fluffy goodness and enjoy fresh.

Notes

  • Chill dough overnight for deeper flavor.
  • Pre-bake pizza bases for a crispier crust.
  • Use bread flour for extra chewy pizzas.
  • Freeze portions for up to a month for quick meals.
