Description
This quick and easy Bisquick pizza crust recipe creates a delicious homemade pizza base in under 30 minutes. Using Bisquick mix and hot water, this dough comes together fast and bakes to a golden, crispy crust that’s perfect for your favorite pizza toppings.
Ingredients
Pizza Dough
- 1â…” cups Bisquick mix
- ½ cup hot water
- Olive oil, for drizzling
Pizza Toppings
- Pizza sauce, as needed
- Shredded cheese, as needed
- Your choice of toppings (e.g., pepperoni, vegetables, etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 450ºF to ensure it is hot enough to bake the pizza crust to a crispy finish.
- Prepare dough: In a medium bowl, combine the Bisquick mix and hot water, stirring just until the mixture comes together into a dough.
- Rest dough: Drizzle the dough with a little olive oil and cover with a towel. Let it rest in a warm place for 5 minutes to relax the gluten and improve texture.
- Roll out crust: Roll the dough out on a pizza stone or pizza pan to your desired thickness, forming the base for your pizza.
- Add toppings: Spread a layer of pizza sauce over the crust, then sprinkle shredded cheese and add your preferred toppings evenly across the surface.
- Bake pizza: Place the prepared pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the crust is golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- For a crisper crust, preheat the pizza stone in the oven before placing the dough on it.
- You can customize toppings to your preference, including vegetables, meats, and herbs.
- If you prefer a thinner crust, roll the dough out more; for thicker, roll less.
- Using hot water helps activate the Bisquick mix for better dough texture.
- Drizzling olive oil on the dough prevents it from drying out during resting and adds flavor.
