With this in mind, we’re going to introduce you to making a stuffed pizza crust pizza at home. You’ll be saving money and you’ll actually be eating a better tasting pie.

Flour, water, oil and yeast are all it takes to make stuffed pizza crust dough. Check the Internet for a generic recipe.

Measure out the flour and pour it onto a cutting board. Make a mound, then make a hollow well in the center of it about 6″ in diameter. Pour the warm water into it with the yeast added. Stir it for a couple of minutes. You will see the water turn cloudy then a slight foam will form. This lets you know the yeast has been activated. Finally, add your oil.

Next start pulling the flour from the edges into the wet mixture. Do this carefully so as not to break the “dam” of flour. Continue this until the mixture is quite thick, then pull all the flour into the mass. Keep folding it into itself until a ball of stuffed pizza crust dough forms.

Add a little flour at a time as you begin to knead it to keep it from getting too sticky. After kneading about 5-10 minutes you should have a shiny ball of stuffed pizza crust dough that will bounce back if depressed with a finger.

The yeast is now given time to do its work. Put the stuffed pizza crust dough into a covered bowl and let it sit in a warm place for a couple hours. It should double in size.

When ready, take the dough from the bowl and cut off what you need for your first stuffed crust pizza. It should only take a fist-sized ball of dough for a thin stuffed pizza crust.

Roll it out until it’s about 1/8″ thick. Starting about 1-1 1/2″ in from the edge, starting placing cheese sticks or grated cheese in a narrow row all around the outside edge of the pizza.

You will now seal in the cheese by folding the dough outside the row, over the row itself. Press it down to form the seal. Go all the way around the pizza until all the cheese has been covered and sealed.

You know something? Your first stuffed pizza crust pie shell is done! All you need to do now is load it with your favorite toppings and throw it into a hot oven! Get ready for a delicious pie!
