Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups bread flour (or plain/all-purpose flour)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tsp olive oil (or any other oil)
  • 1/2 cup cold tap water

Additional

  • 1 tbsp extra flour (for dusting)
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil (optional, for brushing crust; can use canola or other neutral oil)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 250°C (480°F) or 230°C (fan) and place the oven shelf in the top quarter to ensure a well-cooked base and crispy crust.
  2. Prepare Pan: Lightly spray a pizza pan or baking tray with oil to prevent sticking during baking.
  3. Prepare Sauce and Toppings: Ready your pizza sauce and desired toppings, keeping shredded mozzarella chilled until ready to use for best melting results.
  4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a food processor fitted with a standard S blade, add bread flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Pulse twice to combine thoroughly.
  5. Add Wet Ingredients and Process: Add cold water and olive oil to the dry mixture. Blitz on low speed for about 40 seconds until the dough forms a shaggy ball.
  6. Knead Dough by Hand: Sprinkle your work surface with half the extra flour and scrape the dough out of the processor. Sprinkle remaining extra flour on top, then knead for 3 to 4 minutes until smooth and elastic but not sticky.
  7. Shape and Roll Out: Form the dough into a smooth ball and roll it out into a 30cm (12 inch) round on a floured surface.
  8. Transfer to Pan: Move the rolled dough onto your prepared pizza pan or baking tray (preferably with holes for a crispier base). Use your fingers to gently stretch the dough from the center to cover the pan, leaving the edges loose to help create a puffy crust.
  9. Add Toppings: Spread 1/4 cup of pizza sauce evenly over the base, then add your selected toppings. Keep the crust edges free of toppings to allow better browning and rising.
  10. Brush Crust: Lightly brush the exposed crust edge with vegetable oil or another neutral oil to enhance crispness and color.
  11. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 12 minutes or until the crust is golden and crisp.
  12. Serve: Remove from oven, slice, and serve immediately to enjoy your homemade no yeast pizza.

Notes

  • You can use bread flour for more chewiness or all-purpose flour as a substitute.
  • Keep shredded mozzarella in the fridge until ready to use for best melting texture.
  • Brushing the crust edge with oil helps achieve a golden, crisp crust.
  • Using a pizza pan with holes or a pizza stone helps create a crispier base.
  • The dough will not be as smooth and elastic as yeast dough, but it should be soft and manageable.
