I apologize to members of the Henryetta Weight Watchers meeting for including the following which I have already shared with them. They seemed to enjoy; maybe you will, too.

Pizza Dough for Bread Machines
Experienced bread makers should be able to adapt the recipe to other methods.

1 C +2T water
1 ¼ t salt
1 ½ T olive oil
3 C bread flour
2 T dry milk
1 pkg yeast


Combine ingredients according to bread machine's directions. Process on dough cycle. Remove dough from machine and divide into 6 equal portions (I weigh portions-each should be about 4 oz.) Roll each into a 9" circle. Pierce all over with fork to eliminate puffing while baking.

I bake each crust in a pizza oven for 5 minutes before adding other ingredients. Experiment with regular oven at 350° or 400°. Selections for toppings follow. Bake 5-15 minutes longer to finish. You will need to experiment with your baking situation to see what works for you.

Nutritional information is based on all information available to me at the time of publication. Verify that your ingredients yield the same results. I usually choose to use light rather than nonfat products. Some items, such as cheddar, I use the normal product as noted, as my preference. Optional ingredients are not included in the calculation of calories or points.
