Food Processor Pizza Dough

  • 1 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 4 tsp olive oil
Dissolve yeast in water. Stir in honey and let stand until the liquid begins to bubble, 3-5 minutes; stir in 1 Tbsp oil.

Pulse flour and salt in a food processor to combine. With the machine running, pour in the yeast mixture and process until dough forms a ball around the blade.

Remove dough from processor (it might be sticky) and knead on a lightly floured surface, adding more flour as necessary, until smooth and elastic, 1-2 minutes.

Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl; turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until dough stretches gently when pulled, 30-60 minutes.

Punch dough down and divide into four pieces; shape into balls (pull down sides, tuck under, and pinch dough closed on bottom). Roll each ball under your palm until smooth, about 1 minute.

Arrange dough balls on a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap coated with nonstick spray, and let rise 30-60 minutes more.

Press each dough ball out on a lightly floured surface. Turn dough, pressing on its center, then roll each into a 7- to 8-inch circle. Transfer two rolled dough rounds to a pizza peel generously dusted with cornmeal; brush each with 1 tsp oil, then add toppings.

Makes 4 servings, 7 WW PointPlus each.
