Basics

Elevate your homemade pizza with this easy sourdough crust. The addition of sourdough discard creates a chewy, flavorful base with a hint of classic tang that perfectly complements your favorite toppings.

Sourdough Pizza Crust

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter (113g)
  • 4 cups flour (einkorn or spelt is best) (600g)
  • 1 1/2 cups water (354g)
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (26.6)

Directions

  1. Add the ingredients to a stand mixer bowl on the morning of pizza night.

  2. With a dough hook, mix the dough on medium speed until the dough passes the windowpane test, which might take up to 10 minutes.

  3. Place in an oiled bowl and cover with a lid or plastic wrap. Rest at room temperature for about 8 hours.

  4. Preheat oven to 475.

  5. Divide the dough into 4 equal sections and allow to rest while you prepare your toppings.

  6. Roll out on a lightly floured surface. I like to create a bit of a ridge around the outside for hand-stretched thickness.

  7. Spread pizza sauce and top with your favorite toppings.

  8. Bake for 13-15 minutes (I like to use a preheated pizza stone or cast iron skillet but you can also use a pizza pan.). Finish off with a 3-minute broil to achieve the browning on top of the crust.
