Steps:
- Add all ingredients to the bread machine's baking pan in the order listed (4 cups flour, 1 3/4 cups water, 1 tbsp salt, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp dried active yeast, 4 tbsp oil). Close the lid and turn the bread maker to the "leavened dough" cycle which typically runs for 1 hour 30 minutes. After about 20 minutes of the cycle check on the dough to make sure that all flour is incorporated and you have a smooth soft ball. If the dough looks too runny, add a little more flour, one table spoon at a time, until the dough comes into a soft ball. Do not add too much flour or the pizza will be doughy and dense.
- Preheat oven: Meanwhile, place the baking rack in the top 1/3rd of the oven, then put the baking stone or steel on top. Preheat the oven to 550F or as high as your oven will allow for 1 hour before baking.
- Divide and Shape balls: Once the dough cycle is complete turn the dough out onto floured surface and divide into 4 equal pieces, use a kitchen scale if you prefer to be precise.Shape each piece into a taught ball. To do so, flatten the ball into a patty, then fold it in half, then in half again. Continue folding in half until it is too hard to fold it in half again. Now tuck all ends under until you have a smooth, taught ball. Set aside, smooth side up to rest on floured surface for about 15 - 20 minutes, spacing them about 4 inches. Lightly sprinkle with flour and cover with a tea towel to prevent a crust from forming. (See Note 1)
- Prepare the toppings: depending on your preference prepare the toppings & sauce for the pizza.
- Stretch: flour your work surface well, then add 1 dough ball while keeping the remainder of the pizza balls covered. Now, gently press in the middle of the pizza with the flat part of your fingers working around a circle from the inside towards the outer edges to stretch the ball into a 10" - 12" without deflating 1 inch of the outer edge. Tip: Avoid using a rolling pin to roll the pizza dough, while a simpler and quicker method this will deflate the dough, and the pizza will not be as airy and light as it would be if you stretch the pizza.Transfer the pizza dough onto parchment paper (my preferred method), pizza pan (I use this one, but you can use any) or a wooden or metal pizza peel generously sprinkled with semolina.
- Add toppings: add about 1/4 cup of pizza sauce and spread it around evenly, staying off the edges. Then add about 1 1/3 cups of grated mozzarella cheese (full fat) followed by toppings of choice. If using a wooden pizza peel to transfer the pizza make sure to shake the pizza on the peel back and forth every so often as you're adding toppings to make sure the pizza does not stick to the pizza peel.
- Bake: slide the pizza onto the hot stone/steel and bake for about 7 minutes per pizza, or until the edges of the pizza are well browned and the cheese in the middle bubbles, keeping a close eye to make sure that it does not burn. Note the bake time and set the timer for the second pizza for that time. Using a timer is very helpful at preventing the pizza from burning.If baking inside a pizza pan with no pizza stone/steel bake for about 13 minutes or until the edges are well browned and the cheese is bubbly in the middle.
- Remove from the oven: my favorite way to get the pizza out of the oven is to use a metal pizza peel, it slides under the parchment or pizza easily and is easy to clean and maintain.Transfer to a wooden board, cut into wedges and serve immediately.

WORLD'S EASIEST BREAD MACHINE PIZZA DOUGH
Borrowed from a handful of other pizza dough recipes and tweaked to yield a tasty, thick crust using a bread machine. If you use a pizza stone, sprinkle it with cornmeal before placing the pizza on it to help keep it from sticking. Feel free to try different spices if you don't like any of the ones in this recipe.

BREAD MACHINE PIZZA DOUGH WITH WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR
This dough turns out crusty on the outside and soft on the inside, just what my family likes. No one even noticed that it was made with half whole wheat flour. After trying numerous recipes, I was told this was the keeper. From The Bread Machine Cookbook by Donna Rathwell German.

Tips:
- Using a bread machine to make pizza dough is a convenient and easy method, especially for beginners or those short on time.
- When measuring ingredients, use a kitchen scale for accuracy. This ensures the correct proportions of ingredients, resulting in a well-balanced dough.
- If you don't have a bread machine, you can still make the dough by hand. Follow the same steps, but knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- The dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to use, thaw the dough overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for several hours.
- For a crispy crust, preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible before baking the pizza.
- Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings can make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook evenly.
- Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. The exact baking time will depend on the thickness of the dough and the amount of toppings.
Conclusion:
Using a bread machine to make pizza dough is a simple and efficient method that yields delicious results. With just a few simple ingredients and the help of a bread machine, you can create a homemade pizza dough that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're a seasoned pizza maker or a beginner, this recipe is a great starting point for creating your own delicious pizzas at home.
