Homemade Freezer Friendly Pizza Dough in the Bread Machine | Large Family Recipes

Make this pizza dough in the bread machine for your family! I like to keep my bread machines going and make multiple balls of homemade pizza dough to freeze for the coming months. You can also cook pizza straight from the bread machine, too!
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups warm water 3 TBSP olive oil you can use vegetable oil if it's all you have 2 TBSP sugar 1 tsp salt 3 cups whole wheat flour (You can totally use all-purpose if you'd rather. When I use exclusively all-purpose flour I usually add in an extra cup to bring it to 4 cups total.) 2 1/4 tsp Active Dry Yeast

Instructions
 

  • Place ingredients in bread machine in order listed. Set bread machine on "dough" setting.

Notes

Once the dough cycle is complete I remove the dough and place it in a large metal mixing bowl. I let it sit covered lightly with a clean kitchen towel for about another hour or so. It will continue to rise during that time. Afterward, I will either roll out the dough to make homemade pizza that night or I'll package it per my directions below for the freezer. 
Wrap the dough balls in plastic wrap and then place them in a gallon Ziploc bag after they are done with their rise and place in freezer. Thaw in refrigerator the day before you plan to make pizza. Roll them out into either sheet pan or traditional circle pizzas. And bake them at 400 for 15 to 20 minutes until the cheese is hot and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
