Super simple and super awesome. This how-to-make wild pizza dough recipe is not only a healthier option but some may say it’s a tastier option too. The wild dough is strong enough to hold up with extra toppings but light and fluffy on the inside and crispy but not too crunchy on the outside.

Once you have a sourdough starter on hand, this dough couldn’t be easier. Grab a mixing bowl and a large spoon, add 2 cups of sourdough starter, add salt, and slowly add a cup of flour a little bit at a time until the dough takes shape but is still a little sticky but workable. Knead for 30 seconds, put into lightly floured bowl and cover with a towel for an hour. Perfect dough in an hour.

You can make it on a fly and have delicious restaurant style pizza at home and the best part is you can throw anything that you have in the fridge on to it and in most cases, you’re good to go, and you look good doing it!

2 cups SOURDOUGH STARTER
1 cup BREAD FLOUR (adding 1/3 at a time)
1 tsp SALT

Instructions

PIZZA DOUGH

Make your dough by mixing the sourdough starter, bread flour (adding a bit of flour at a time until it takes shape but is still a little sticky) and salt together. If it's too dry you can add a little water. Knead the dough for 30 seconds, flour lightly as needed.
Place the dough in a lightly floured bowl and cover with a towel, set aside for 1 hour. (The pizza steel or stone needs to preheat for 1 hour as well, so preheat oven to 550°F after you finish making your pizza dough).

PIZZA

Preheat oven to 550°F for 1 hour with pizza steel or pizza stone inside the oven.
On a floured surface roll out dough, then slide a floured pizza peel underneath the dough.
Add sauce, cheese and toppings, pat down toppings, then bake on the preheated pizza steel for 8-10 minutes.
Remove pizza from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
