Bread Machine Pizza Dough

Making Bread Machine Pizza Dough is quick and easy because your bread machine does all the work for you. 

It just takes a minute or two to add the ingredients to your bread machine and you will soon have enough dough to make multiple pizzas, never mind the cost savings over takeout pizza.

How to Make Bread Machine Pizza Dough


I generally shy away from kitchen gadgets. Most just seem to take up precious space. My bread machine is an exception because it gets plenty of use.

The other great thing about making this pizza dough in your bread machine is that it is a make-ahead recipe and the flavor of the dough improves as you let it sit.  

That means when you make the dough on a Tuesday or Wednesday you will have the most delicious pizza dough you can imagine for Friday's pizza night.

Pro Tips for Perfect Pizza Dough in Your Bread Machine

Add ingredients to the bread machine in the order listed in the recipe.  The liquid ingredients go first.

Be sure your water is warm, not hot.  Water that is too hot will keep the yeast from working.

Use a flavorful olive oil in this recipe.  It helps to tenderize and add to the flavor of your pizza dough.

The powdered milk adds moisture to the dough and improves browning.  It also helps the dough relax making it easier for you to shape your pizza.

Rub olive oil on your hands to make it easy to handle the pizza dough.  Also, coat your storage container with a little olive oil.

Store your pizza dough in a container that matches the shape you will ultimately make for your pizza.  This will make it easier to press your dough into shape.


Other Delicious Recipes for Your Bread Machine

I generally shy away from kitchen gadgets. Most just seem to take up precious space. My bread machine is an exception because it gets plenty of use. 

I like to make this recipe for bread machine hamburger buns and keep them on hand in my freezer for sandwiches as well as burgers. 


This recipe for bread machine Italian focaccia bread is also a family favorite.  We enjoy it warm. from the oven, with garlicky, homemade, pesto spread on top.
