For Pizza Dough Only: my kids wanted pizza for lunch and I didn't have a boxed mix on hand, so I tried this recipe based on the reviews. I followed the recipe exactly except for adding a tablespoon of dried Italian Seasoning and a tablespoon of Splenda to the dry ingredients...It came out fantastic!! I also did not pre-bake the crust and just cooked it at 450 for about 30 minutes. I will be trying the sauce the next time we plan to make pizza (I didn't have tomato sauce) but if its as good as the crust I will never buy jarred pizza sauce again. This recipe is a keeper and boxed pizza mixes will not be found in my pantry anymore!!

This is a crust review only...Great tasting..Not yeasty like some recipes for crust. I bake first, then topped and baked again just like recipe says to. I did add an additional cup of flour to the dough before kneading. I will use this again.

I followed the dough recipe exactly and when cooked it made a very stiff crust my husband loves. I will make again.

This pizza was AWESOME!! I had never made homemade pizza before, and was a little intimidated at the idea, but this recipe had such great reviews that I had to try it. It turned out so well. After reading the reviews, I added one additional cup of flour to the dough mixture. There was just no way that the dough could've been rolled out without that extra flour, in my judgment - way too liquidy. It was perfect with the extra cup. The dough was quite thick and not really capable of being rolled out. I just kind of shaped it into circles (we made 5 individual circles - one for each person), and that worked fine. The crust was quite thick, but we like it that way. The sauce was incredible, too. There was way more sauce than you need, but you can use the extra to dip crusts in if you desire, or just freeze it for next time. This was a fun, economical, healthier way to have pizza. Thank you for this great recipe!

DOUGH REVIEW ONLY!! Ok, I hate it when people say,"Well I did this differently..." and then alter it so it barely resembles the original recipe. I just used the dough recipe, my family LOVED the dough recipe. I doubled it so I could make four pizzas. We then used what we had to make pizza ignoring the rest of the recipe. We did not bake it (forgot all about that), but it was amazing. I got tons of compliments and this is now my go-to recipe for pizza dough! THANK YOU!

Amazing pizza!! My son and husband both loved this recipe. Best of all my 8 yr. old son did every step himself, I just stayed close by for supervision. Heloved watching the dough rise and watching it bake in the oven.... and loved it even more after taking the first bite of his own creation. Recommend it to all, especially moms that love to have their children involved in the kitchen. Thanks for this great recipe. I will use it over and over again! :)

Sauce and crust perfection, in my opinion ... both couldn't be tastier or easier! I omitted parmesan cheese and added canned mushrooms.

Simple recipe. Glad I practiced how to make bread first. My boyfriend loves thick crust and lots of sauce so I added diced tomatoes to the sauce. The only thing about that is you just need to really drain and strain the tomatoes so it's not soupy when you cut into the pizza. Besides omitting some toppings to suit taste, this recipe is so good. Even after wrapping slices up and keeping them in the freezer for a couple of days, it's still good!
