Hello again my name’s John I’m a retired cook from the northeast of England in the UK and welcome to my latest bread recipe and in this one I’ll show you how to make my delicious mouth-watering pan pizza it’s probably the easiest and the best pizza you’ll ever make at home for

A start it’s a no-need dough recipe so no stand mixer required it has very simple ingredients and it’s relatively quick to make and I’ll also show you how to add an irresistible crispy cheese crust around the edge of the pizza known as a free coat cheese crust this stunning Pizza will definitely impress

Your family and your friends you can view the ingredients list and full written method for this recipe on the recipe page on the Channel’s website I’ll leave a link in the description under the video or you can click on the eye icon top right of the screen to take

It directly to the recipe page I’d also like to thank my patreon PayPal and super thanks supporters for their very kind help in producing these tutorial videos I’ll be giving you all a name splash and Shout out a little later in the video okay let’s get on with making this absolutely stunning pan

Pizza recipe Okay I’ll start the recipe by testing that my yeast is alive and well add the sugar to the warm water and mix until it’s dissolved now add your dry yeast and mix that in I’m using instant active dried yeast will do too always test your yeast before starting any

Bread recipe Now set that aside to activate right it’s five minutes later and as you can see my yeast is starting to activate so it’s time to make up this very easy no-need pizza dough add the mixture to a medium-sized Bowl next add the bread flour to the Bowl

Sprinkle the salt over the top of the flour okay now mix that until it all comes together I like to start this by using the handle of my trusty wooden spoon once the bulk of the mixing is done switch to a bowl scraper and fold it

Over itself a few times make sure you scrape all that dried flour from the sides of the bowl once you’re happy there’s no dried pockets of flour in the mix lift it out with your bowl scraper now add a teaspoon of cooking oil to the bowl and

Spread it out with your fingers this will help the dough release from the bowl after the first proof don’t wipe the oil off your hand just yet right get the dough back into the bowl and with your oily hand form the dough into a bowl

Now cover the bowl I like to use a shower cup for this and we have a good selection of these in various colors and patterns in the website store if you’re interested Now set the bowl aside in a nice warm spot I normally use the oven with the

Light bulb on but as the weather is glorious in the UK today I’m just proving mine on the bench Now set your timer for one hour Right that’s the time up for the first proofing and as you can see it’s risen quite nicely Now using your bowl scraper again get it out of the bowl and because we took the time to oil the bowl it should come out quite easily right to help you handle this quite sticky dough

Add a little oil to your hands now give the dough a few turns this is called knocking the door Buck you can’t be quite brutal with it now form the dough into a ball again get it back into the bowl cover it and set your timer for 45

Minutes for its last proofing in the bowl right while I’m waiting for that to proof I’ll make them very quick and easy tomato sauce first add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil to a medium-sized saucepan on a medium to high heat once that’s hot throw in your onions and Fry until soft

Once the onions are cooked stir in the garlic of course you can buy a jar of tomato pizza sauce but it’s nowhere near as good you get less than half the quantity and homemade is a fraction of the price that’s a no-brainer in my book next add a half teaspoon of dried

Oregano you may know that is oregano half a teaspoon of dried mussel and a half teaspoon of salt and stir those in time to add the canned tomatoes and don’t waste any rinse out the tin with a little water now add around a tablespoon of tomato puree or paste

By the way this basic tomato sauce is very versatile you can use it for lasagna meatballs spaghetti ball and lots of other Italian dishes bring that to a simmer before adding a few chopped fresh basil leaves those are optional but it does add a little color to the sauce and there’s enough sauce

There to make three of these pizzas and that’s it your tomato pizza topping sauce is done turn off the heat give it a thumbs up add the lid and set it aside to cool right there’s a few different pan sizes and Brands you can use to make fantastic

Pizzas in whichever one you choose must be non-stick and obviously has to be oven proof with a metal handle this first one is great for small pizzas check out my garlic tear and share video where I use this pan this large carbon steel pan would be great one of my

All-time favorite pans but the handle is a bit too long for my oven by far the best pan to use is a well-seasoned cast iron pan like this 12 inch Lodge frying pan and this is the beauty I’ll be using today there’s very little prep just add a

Tablespoon of olive oil and spread it out Right I’ll set that aside for now okay time’s up on this final proof and it’s looking wonderful using your bowl scraper turn it out onto the worktop once again add a little oil to your hands it’s time to flatten the dough out into a small circle turn the disc over and flatten and

Stretch it out a little more maintaining the round shape now place the flat round dough into the oiled pan now start manipulating and stretching the dough a little at a time if it tightens up Let it relax for a couple of minutes then it’ll be easier to stretch it out again

Try to keep the outer half inch of the dough a little thicker before going any further preheat your oven to 190 Celsius that’s 375 Fahrenheit or gas mark 5. foreign start the pizza topping by adding some grated cheddar cheese all around the edge of the pizza and this is what makes

That delicious free core crispy cheese crust just slightly pull the dough edge up a little to get the cheese just under the rim continue this all the way around the edge of the pizza time to start spreading your homemade tomato sauce this size pizza usually takes around three to four tablespoons

Don’t go right to the edge of the pizza leave a half inch cup as shown that simply allows the edge of the pizza to rise a little more there should be enough sauce left for at least another two pizzas just split what’s left into two and freeze them

Now spread your grated mozzarella all over the top of the pizza as shown try to keep it a little deeper in the middle of the pizza incidentally all of my measurements are for a 12 inch pizza if you’re making a smaller or even a larger one you’ll need

To adjust the quantities to suit yours right almost there place your pepperoni slices equally spaced over the surface of the pizza I always use 12. it seems to form a good symmetrical pattern if you don’t like pepperoni just leave it off and have it clean

For a final touch of flavor I like to add a good sprinkle of cracked black pepper no need for any extra salt on this pizza as there’s plenty in the cheese and the sauce and that looks totally amazing already now get it into the preheated oven and set your timer for 25 minutes

And while that’s baking I hope you don’t mind if I give my four recipe books a quick shout out the books of lots of our favorite recipes from our work kitchens in them and also book 4 in this series is totally dedicated to bread recipes and by popular demand the skeleton style

Oven gloves are now available too just click on the eye icon top right of your screen and that will take you to the website shop where all of these items are available now when this 10 minutes or so left I like to turn mine for even cooking

Once the time’s up carefully lift the pan out of the oven and place it on top of the stove and as you can see the base of the pizza needs a bit more color place the pan on a hob on a medium heat for a couple of minutes this style of

Pizza making guarantees that you get a perfect crispy base to your homemade oven pizzas every time and there you go the bottom is perfectly cooked okay get the pan on a wire rack I’m using a couple of large spatulas lift the pizza out of the pan and onto a chopping board

And that’s it this gorgeous Pizza is now ready to slice and serve and doesn’t that look absolutely wonderful as you can see the base has lots of color and is well cooked and extremely hot right it’s one minute later and I’ll try again right time for a taste absolutely delicious I’ve had pizzas

Delivered from a well-known Pizza franchise not as good as this one and it’s so simple to make and that freak or cheesy crust is so crispy and amazingly tasty gotta try some of that free cold crust just listen to that crunch really Moorish I’ll tell you what guys I’m giving this
