Crazy Dough for Everything
Crazy Dough for Everything (aka Universal Dough) – make one miracle dough, keep it in the refrigerator and use for anything you like: pizza, focaccia, dinner rolls, pretzels , crescent rolls, etc.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk, lukewarm
- 2 tsp. granulated sugar
- 4 tsp. active dry or instant yeast
- 6-⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tsp. baking powder
- 3 tsp. salt
- 1-½ cups plain yogurt
- 2 whole eggs
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine lukewarm milk with sugar and yeast.
- Let the mixture stand until yeast activates; it will become foamy and start expanding.
- Put the yeast mixture, together with all other ingredients, in the bowl of your mixer or food processor; mix well.
- You should get soft dough, similar to pizza dough.
- If the dough is too dry, add a little bit of milk or water.
- If the dough is too soft, add a little bit of flour.
- You can use miracle Crazy Dough immediately – shape it into whatever shape you like, wait 15 to 20 minutes in the warm kitchen until it starts expanding, then pop in a hot oven.
- When ready to bake, pre-heat oven to 350°F.
- Brush the surface of the bread with milk.
- Place in oven and bake for about 30 to 35 min or until skewer inserted in the center of the bread remains clean.
- Remove from oven; let cool to a room temperature prior to serving.
Notes
Put Crazy Dough in a plastic bag, squeeze the air out and close the bag. Just to be safe, you can put it in a second bag because the dough will continue expanding and the first bag could burst. Keep it in your refrigerator for up to 3 days or the dough can be frozen.
