Go to the Italian store in Calgary cheap cheap. Can freeze for about 30 days. Easy peasy. Making your own is a challenge but have at it.
It is a good thing to get the young's into trying. Make dough

Wolfgang Puck Thin Crust Dough Recipe
Reliable dough recipe for Thin Crust pizza.
I wrap each of the 4 balls in saran and keep in the freezer so I always have some ready to go. Designed for 8" or 9" pizzas, But We like it super thin and stretch each ball out for a 12" pizza

My pizza dough has changed over the years. For years I had made a yeast dough, warm risen with sugar. It was very ‘bready’, loved by all. I would oil brush the crust and sprinkle half with sesame seed, and half with course salt, to satisfy different tastes. I then started doing a non sugar, cold rise, that got better with age. 48 hrs minimum, 72+ better. These days I buy a nam bread, and make individual pizzas, cooking them crisp.

I still use the pizza recipe from Grade 8 Home Ec a thousand years ago. Easy peasy and only takes about 30 minutes to mix up the dough.

1/2 cup warm water, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1 1/2 tsp yeast, 2 tbsp oil, 1/4 tsp salt, 3/4 cup flour and 1/2 cup flour and flour for kneading.

Dissolve sugar in water and sprinkle with yeast. Let stand for 10 minutes. Stir. Add salt, oil and 3/4 cup flour and mix well. Add 1/2 cup flour and mix in as best as you can. Dump out onto floured counter and knead until smooth and elastic. Roll into a circle and top as desired. Bake at 400F for about 15 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly. Makes 1 - 10” crust.

I usually triple for 4 people.

They are all about the same ,flour,water yeast and sugar.

I use the one that comes in the recipe book when we bought our kitchen aid mixer.

Its just enough for one of those large pizza pans you cam buy


3.5 cups flour
1 cup of the hottest water you can get from your tap
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 -1 /2 cup of sugar( I went higher as I like it sweet.)
2 tbspn of veg oil

for the yeast i buy it at costco . $4.00 will make at least 200 pizzas

I use a coffee cup and place 1/4 cup of hot tap water in it ,1 tsp of sugar and 3 tsp of yeast and stir. in about 10 minutes that cup should be foaming over the top . if it doesn't it did not come alive.

then i mix that all with that above in my mixer.
then it must be kneaded for 4 mins. or it will not rise.

l cover it and let it sit in the oven for an hr ,so it rises . ( I let the oven get warm to the touch first .then shut it off.)

Pull it out of the oven and punch it down with your fist ,then roll it it round on some parchment paper and transfer paper and dough on pizza pan.
add topping (pinapple and ham) cover with cheese .
Bake 450 degrees 15-20 mins
After the first 10 mins, take a knife and lift an edge and look under it to see if it is brown . take it out then or bake another min or two

I make this pizza every second week for the last 10 years .

I’ll often substitute half the white flour for whole wheat. Need a touch more water to compensate.

For a recipe that use 3.5 cups of flour, try adding an ounce of shredded parmesan and 1/2 tsp of dried basil.

I've found you just can't rush pizza dough if you want the chew and crunch of pizza dough like most commercial places make.

The recipe I use now is basically no knead and works great. But you need to leave it 24-48 hours or longer in the fridge to develop the gluten structure

226gr flour
158gr water
1tsp yeast
1tsp sugar
1tsp salt

Knead lightly in bowl to bring dough together then coat generously in olive oil and put in a sealable container (big enough to allow for some rising). Let rise for 1-2 hours on the counter then put it in the fridge for 24+ hours. Take it out and shape then allow it to warm and rise for an hour or two before applying toppings. I do as someone mentioned above and shape it on parchment which makes for a real easy transfer to a preheated pizza stone. I generally cut the excess parchment around the pizza and just leave a tab for pulling onto stone so that a bunch of excess parchment doesn't burn in the hot oven.

Here’s “my” recipe...

For thin crust pizzas about 10” in diameter

For every pizza 1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp. Sugar to get it kicking
Add Some yeast and make sure it’s kicking...

Add enough flour to make it gluey..

Let it sit overnight or longer

On pizza day, add some salt and some damned good olive oil...or no oil depending on your mood.

Add more flour-slowly and “just enough” the dough should be somewhat sticky

Let it rise until almost double

Divide into pieces and rest for 5/10minutes...then form into balls

Put the balls into the fridge for a few hours

Take them out and flatten using flour or oil (depending on your mood) so they don’t stick. Let them sit for a few minutes to relax, then final stretch ...

Top them and cook them.

Try this... no sauce! Or if you do use sauce make a bechamel. Baby cold water shrimp, and thin sliced mushrooms, topped with a couple chunks of mozzarella balls. When it comes out spread with garlic butter.

Or this...my god it’s orgasmic.... Bechamel sauce, escargot, a couple slices of mozzarella ball ... garlic butter when it comes out.
