How To Make Sourdough Pizza Crust

• Begin by mixing ½ a cup of your sourdough starter (or discard) with your warm water in a large mixing bowl. Then, gently mix in the yeast and allow this to sit for 5 minutes. Add the olive oil and mix. Add a pinch of salt and the flour and mix until a thick and sticky pizza dough forms. Leave the dough in the bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel. Allow it to rise for 30 minutes.
• After the dough has risen, use your hands to form the dough into two pizza dough balls. If you are making your pizza at a future date, wrap the dough in plastic and store in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. You can also prepare the crust immediately. No resting time required.
• To prepare the crust, roll each dough ball onto a floured surface until it is ⅓ inch thick. Brush around the edges with olive oil and use any sauces, cheese, and toppings of your choosing. We cook our pizza in the Ninja pizza oven but a regular oven set to 500 will also cook your pizza very well. You should only need to cook you pizza at that temperature for 5-8 minutes. Watch it carefully to ensure it doesn't burn. Enjoy!
