hi steemian, today I'm going to write about how to make a homemade pizza.
Actually, I end up making this homemade pizza because I'm so craving to eat pizza. Not just that, my husband and my sisters also want to eat it. So, my sister @audreyclaire join me in the kitchen. She bakes a pumpkin cake, and I make my easy homemade pizza.

HOMEMADE PIZZA RECIPE
Prep: 1 hours 30 minutes
Cook: 20-25minutes
Pizza dough is a yeasted dough which requires active dry yeast. Make sure to check the expiration date on the yeast package ya. If Yeast is too old may be dead and won't work anymore.
I only use the all-purpose flour instead of the bread flour. Actually, the bread flour is higher in gluten than all-purpose flour and will make a crispier crust for your pizza.
INGREDIENTS
Pizza Dough: Makes enough dough for two 8-9 inch pizzas
1 cups (210 ml) cold water (from the refrigerator)
1 package (10g) of active dry yeast
3 3/4 cups (500 g) bread flour (I'm using all-purpose flour)
100 g buttercup
1 teaspoons salt
50 g sugar (if you want less sugar than you can cut sugar)
Pizza Ingredients:
Olive oil
Tomato sauce / Chilli sauce (smooth, or pureed)
Firm mozzarella cheese, grated (i don't any cheese in my kitchen)
Mayonis
sausages (com slicing)
Chopped Onion
Ham, thinly sliced
Mix vegetable
METHOD
- We have to proof the yeast:
Put the warm water in the large bowl. Then, Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is dissolved.
(Note that if you are using "instant yeast" instead of "active yeast", no proofing is required. Just add to the flour in the next step.)
Then, put all the ingredients in the mixer bowl using the mixing paddle for the dough. The dough should be a little bit sticky. If it's too wet, sprinkle in a little more flour.
After that, let the dough rise. Spread a thin layer of melted buttercup inside a large bowl. Place the pizza dough in the bowl and turn it around so that it gets coated with the butter. I just do a quick fermentation for only 1 1/2 hours in a warm place. This will allow the dough to rise sufficiently to work with. Then, cover the dough with plastic wrap.
Because I don't have a pizza stone, nor pizza pan or a thick baking sheet, so I just use the cake pan.
Dust your hands with flour and push the dough down so it deflates a bit. Divide the dough in half. Form two round balls of dough.
Then I prepare my desired toppings.
After that, flatten dough ball, and stretch out into a thin layer and I put it inside the cake pan.
Spread with tomato sauce and sprinkle with toppings.
Bake pizza about 20-25 minutes.
