Sourdough Pizza Dough

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sourdough Pizza Dough.

1. Step 1

   Start by grabbing a mixing bowl and combine your sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, olive oil, and a pinch of salt.

2. Step 2

   Give it a good stir until everything comes together into a nice, cohesive ball of dough.

3. Step 3

   Once you’ve got that, cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

4. Step 4

   This little break is essential as it allows the gluten to relax, making your dough easier to work with.

   This high temperature is key to achieving that perfect crust.

   After the dough has rested, place it on a piece of parchment paper or a lightly floured surface.

8. Step 8

   Roll it out gently, rotating it often until it’s the right size for your baking pan.

9. Step 9

   When you’re happy with the shape, carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to the pan.

    Pop it into your preheated oven and bake for around 7 minutes, or until the crust turns a lovely pale golden color.
