The Crispy Foundation: Homemade Pizza Dough

Every great pizza starts with a solid foundation, and for this masterpiece, we whip up a homemade pizza dough that’s guaranteed to impress. Here’s how we do it:

Activate the Yeast

We begin by whisking together warm water, yeast, and a hint of sugar. This magical concoction is left to sit for about 10 minutes to ensure the yeast becomes active and creates that delightful foamy cap.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients

In a food processor boasting an 11-cup capacity or more, we combine all-purpose flour, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. This forms the base for our dough, providing the perfect canvas for our toppings.

Blend the Wet and Dry Ingredients

To bring it all together, we stir in some extra virgin olive oil into the yeast mixture. With the food processor running, we slowly pour the yeast-infused liquid into the dry ingredients. The result is a dough that starts to come together beautifully.

Knead with Love

Once the dough forms and the food processor starts to show signs of effort, we remove the dough and knead it by hand until it feels gloriously smooth and elastic.

Rise and Shine

The dough is then shaped into a ball, placed in a bowl, and covered with a cozy tea towel. We let it rise for 30-60 minutes, watching in awe as it doubles in size, ready to be transformed into our pizza masterpiece.

Toppings That Tell a Tale

Now that we have our dreamy pizza dough ready, it’s time to explore the toppings that make this pizza truly unforgettable.

Let’s Get Corny

Frozen Corn Kernels: We start with the humble yet delightful frozen corn kernels.

Olive Oil & Vegan Butter: A mix of olive oil and vegan butter adds richness and a delightful golden hue.

Spice and Flavor

We bring the heat with a pinch of cayenne pepper, add depth with a dash of smoked paprika, and infuse brightness with a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice.

For the Thrilling Foods Bakon Crunch

Thrilling Foods Bakon is more than bacon and it’s the tantalizing crunch of their product that takes this pizza to the next level.

Assembling The Medley Of Flavors

With our prepared dough and toppings in hand, it’s time to assemble this masterpiece.

We spread the delectable street corn mixture evenly over the pizza crust.

Next, we sprinkle the Thrilling Foods Bakon bits generously, ensuring every bite has that satisfying crunch.

A layer of shredded vegan mozzarella cheese seals the deal, adding creaminess and tying all the flavors together.

Thin-sliced red onions and jalapeños add a spicy and zesty kick to the mix.

The Finishing Touch: Elote Aioli and Fresh Garnish

We’re not done yet; there’s one more layer of flavor to add.

Our homemade Elote Aioli, made from vegan mayo, lime juice, a pinch of salt, and a dash of chipotle powder, is drizzled over the top, infusing the pizza with a smoky, tangy, and slightly spicy kick.

Finally, we garnish with fresh chopped green onions and vibrant cilantro leaves, adding a burst of color and freshness.

Baking Tips for Pizza Perfection

While making pizza at home is a delightful experience, achieving that perfect balance of crispy crust and gooey toppings can be a bit tricky. Here are some baking tips to help you achieve pizza perfection:

Preheat Your Oven

Make sure your oven is fully preheated to the highest temperature it can go. This ensures that your pizza cooks evenly and the crust gets that coveted crispiness.

Use a Pizza Stone or Steel

If you have one, a pizza stone or steel can help you achieve that ideal crust. Place it in the oven while it preheats, and then carefully slide your pizza onto it for baking.

Don’t Overload the Pizza

While it’s tempting to pile on the toppings, overloading your pizza can result in a soggy crust. Use a light hand when adding toppings to ensure even cooking.

Rotate the Pizza

To ensure even cooking, consider rotating the pizza halfway through the baking time. This helps prevent any hot spots in your oven from causing uneven browning.

Rest Before Slicing

Allow your pizza to rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This helps the cheese and toppings set, making for neater slices.

Experiment and Enjoy

Don’t be afraid to experiment with different toppings and flavor combinations. Pizza is a canvas for culinary creativity, so have fun and savor the process.
