Am I the last person on earth to realize that the dough makes an outstanding pizza crust??? We like to make homemade pizza on friday night. I usually buy the dough from Trader Joe's but this was even better (and super duper easy -- just like the bread).
Re: Crusty pinterest bread
Make it the exact same way as you would for the bread. Instead of making a ball and popping into a cast iron roaster, make it flat and poke it on top of a pizza stone (or baking sheet). Couldn't be easier!
ETA: If you haven't done homemade pizza before, I would pre-heat the oven (and pizza stone if you're using one) as hot as you can get it (500+ F). Roll the pizza out on a piece of parchment paper on a cookie sheet, top it with whatever and then use the parchment to slide the raw pizza onto the hot stone (or just poke the cookie sheet into the hot oven if you don't have a stone). Bake it until it looks done.
You could roll it out and then let it sit for 10m or so before you top it. I was crunched for time, so I didn't and it still came out great.
I'm on my phone, but I'll post the link when I get to work tomorrow if someone else doesn't.

Here you go. It's a great recipe...so easy. I usually use pioneer woman's pizza crust recipe but I might have to try this one now.
What?! I've never heard of this! I need to try, I'm so pumped! Did you use the whole entire balls worth? Did you lube it up with olive oil, or sprinkle any parm. cheese on the outer rim?
Anyone else appreciate my strategic use of interesting wording?
Oh, here's the link for the crusty bread

I did use the whole batch to make one pizza -- I think the size of the pizza(s) is dependent on your crust preference. I did "lube" it up with tons of olive oil and sprinkled the crust with garlic salt. I've never tried parm chz on the crust, but it sounds super yummy. Maybe we could come up with some kind of hybrid crust sprinkle with some garlic salt, italian herbs and parm??
I think that you are totally on to something!
y.u.m.
btw, how much parm do you use? I've done roasted garlic and rosemary, but I think that I did too much roasted garlic. I used a whole head.
