Beer Pizza Dough (For Black and Decker Bread Machine)
"Take a look under the lid once it starts to knead the dough, humidity can alter the doughs texture, it should be slightly sticky but soft and elastic, if it is too sticky then add in a little flour on top of the dough and watch to see if the dough is the correct texture, if the dough is too dry then add in 1 teaspoon water at a time until it is right, if possible leave the unopened bottle or can of beer in a warm sunny spot before using :)"

I just deleted all the other pizza crust recipes in my cookbook. This is the only one I will need from now on. Made it for friends last night and I had to email them all the recipe after supper. Yum! -
Best pizza I've ever made! My bread machine was busy with a different recipe, so I made this in my stand mixer and it turned out great! I'll try the bread machine next time. I baked it at 450 for 4 minutes, then added toppings, then baked 10 minutes more. Crust was perfectly crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside. DW loved it, too!

This turned out really good. I only had half a cup of beer, so I made it up with water. I split the dough and made 2 thin crust pizzas out of it.. Baked it plain for about 5 minutes to start, then added toppings. Yummy! -
Very good dough. I use it for making thin crust. I tried substituting honey for sugar and also added italian seasoning to the mix for a Mediterranean white pizza

This is my new favorite way to make home-made pizza. The amount of pizza dough is enough for one big pizza if you like thick crust. If you want a thinner crust I'd halve this and do two smaller ones. I used olive oil in place of the shortening like you advised. Thanks for yet another great keeper recipe Carol!! Made for 123Hits~ ETA....made this again w/excellent results. Also wanted to revise as I noted I had used a wrong recipe # to indicate using your Pan Release, Professional Pan Coating. :-( -
