The Easiest, Tastiest Pizza Bread You’ll Ever Make! {No-Knead 2-Minute Prep Recipe)

Share/Bookmark

*Note:  This recipe is very much inspired by and based on Steamy Kitchen’s EXCELLENT No-Knead Bread Recipe.  Thank you for opening my eyes and making me realize I do NOT need a breadmaker to have delicious bread in the mornings.  :)

I am SO excited about sharing this with you!  I made this today and it was the best pizza bread I’ve ever tasted – I can’t believe how easy it was!  When I was a little girl my parents made pizza bread with a bread machine and I don’t think it was as easy as this was.  :)

I can’t wait to make more loaves… and I need to because ours is gone already.

In one day.  Yep, it’s good!  I told you!

So are you ready to make this bread yourself?

You’re going to need these ingredients:

3 cups flour (bread flour is recommended but you CAN use all-purpose)
1/2 tsp yeast (I used active dry)
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups warm water
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic salt

1-2 cups cheese (it’ll depend on how cheesy you like it)
1 cup chopped pepperoni slices
Any other toppings you like on your pizza!

Add the garlic salt, too!

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave it in a warm place for 12 or more hours.
I usually make mine at night before bed then throw it in the oven the next morning, that way I’m
not tortured by the rising dough all day long.  ;-)

Wet your hands before touching the dough or it’ll stick to you!
Transfer the dough from the bowl to a floured surface.

(You can let it rest for 1 hour if you just can’t wait)
Preheat oven to 450 degrees!
About 20 minutes before the 2 hours rising time is up, stick your pan with a lid
or anything oven-safe into the oven to pre-heat.  I used a pie pan because that’s what I had.  :)
And it worked just fine!

I covered mine with aluminum foil.

 It was smelling SO good, we could hardly wait!

Good luck waiting for it to cool!

So are you ready to make this or WHAT?  :) 

And you really can’t go wrong with this recipe, or mess up.  It’s very forgiving.

I do want to figure out how to add olive oil to this recipe – I’ll update it when I’ve tried it.  :)
