Awesome! Like others said, not super flavorful but still good. Tender inside, crusty outside. My only alterations were to add herbs to the dough- garlic, rosemary, thyme, basil and oregeno- brushing the crust with olive oil, kneading it a little (it's not really hard or time consuming, so I said why not?) and halving the recipe. That made a super tasty 8 inch pizza. The dough got pretty thick even though I spread it out pretty thin- but I loved it anyways. THANKS!

Bland, but very easy. I'd say put herbs in the dough when rolling out. Doubles well. Nothin' speacial.

I like this recipe, because it's super quick, and quite easy. The changes I made are: adding herbs, and onion/garlic powder to the dough, and I brushed the crust lightly with butter, after 10 minutes in the oven, and sprinkled with parmesan. I liked a review that I read, about making flatbread out of the recipe! sounds good -- I'll have to try that! What I would do differently in the future, is let the dough rise for 30 min., instead of 5... and I might add a touch more olive oil, or something to the crust, to make it a bit less dry. :-) What I loved most about this recipe was, is that I had EVERYTHING in the house already, and didn't need to go out and buy any extra ingredients. Thank you!

I make this once a week, adding some herbs and a bit of honey. My family loves it more than our local pizza joint!

This was delicious & soo easy to make!! I've never made pizza dough before & wanted to make calzones but didn't want to stop for dough at the store so I tried this. The only thing I did different was to add 1/2 tsp basil, 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning & 1/4 tsp onion powder to the dry dough. Then I let it rise for 30 mins punched it down & put it in the fridge till I was ready for it & before baking brushed olive oil with some garlic powder mixed in over the top to help it brown. Absolutely perfect!!!!!! Going to make more & freeze it for even easier dinners :-)

Thanks! This helped propelled me to hero-dome! I got to make fresh pizza for my two young nephews who were very impressed with my tossing skills.

Pretty good base recipe. I followed the other reviewers' suggestions and added some Italian seasoning herb mix to the flour. Maybe it's the climate here but I've usually had to add 1/3 to 1/2 a cup of extra water to get a dough that will stick together and not be separate crumbs and pieces. This recipe makes enough to cover a large cookie sheet. I turn the oven temp down a little to 425 since I use a dark nonstick cookie sheet. I've made this several times now and it comes out nicely each time. I use 2 c all purpose white flour and 1/2 c wheat flour for a light wheat crust. Being lazy, I don't beat the ingredients, just stir, and don't turn out onto a floured surface but just turn out onto the pan, flour my hands and the lump of dough, and shape the dough there on the pan. Also, I let the dough rest 15 min instead of 5. This crust doesn't compare to the best restaurant crusts or to the California Pizza Kitchen recipe I've made before in my Cuisinart, but it's very good, fast and easy and my DH likes it alot.
