How to Make No Rise Pizza Dough
This homemade pizza crust is super easy to make with only a few simple ingredients. Place a pizza stone or pizza peel in the oven and preheat to 475ºF. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and room temperature butter. Mix on low until you have a smooth ball of dough.
Coat a large bowl with a little olive oil. Place the ball of dough in the glass bowl and let the dough rest in a warm place for 10 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to shape dough into a circular shape. Top the pizza crust with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and your favorite toppings. Use a pizza peel or baking sheet to transfer the pizza to the hot oven and bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Garnish the cooked pizza with parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and oregano.
Helpful Tips & Frequently Asked Questions
- You can make one large pizza or two smaller thin crust pizzas.
- If you don’t have a stand mixer, you can mix the dough by hand with a wooden spoon or use a food processor.
- Can use all-purpose flour or bread flour.
- Can substitute warm water for milk if preferred.
- You can bake the pizza on a pizza pan, pizza steel, cookie sheet, or sheet pan.
- We bake our pizza on a pizza steel. It makes THE BEST pizza. The hot steel gives the pizza a wonderfully crispy crust.
- The steel is a little pricey but it is totally worth the investment if you make pizza at home.
- We preheat the oven for about an hour to get the steel nice and hot. If you don’t have an hour, just preheat the oven with the steel inside. I roll out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and bake the dough on the parchment paper on top the steel. I use a cookie sheet to transfer the pizza to the steel in the oven. It works great!
- I bought the pizza steel at Amazon. You can get it here with our affiliate links– http://amzn.to/2jfUnPn.

Can margarine be used in place of the butter?
I’m sure that would be fine
Sounds and looks amazing! I love pizza and this will be the first time I have made one at home. Thank you for sharing the recipe.
*Can
Van this be refrigerated or frozen to use later?
If I have to heat the pizza steel for an hour, then why not just make a yeast dough?
Karen, you don't have to do anything. Make the pizza the way you prefer. This is how we prefer it.
Our go to no rise pizza dough recipe has greek yogurt as an ingredient, so I'm very anxious to try your recipe! Those large containers of yogurt can get pricey. The No Cook Pizza sauce was so easy and delicious! Thanks for sharing!
