Original Recipe Yield 1 pizza crust
 

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 cups bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon nonfat dry milk powder
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 1/3 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)

Directions

  1. Combine flour, salt, sugar, dry milk, butter or margarine, yeast, and warm water. Gather into a ball. Turn out an a lightly floured surface, and knead until the dough is smooth.
