"This is based on a recipe from BH&G's Bread Machine Bounty. It's delicious and simple and makes a one pound (or 1 1/2 pounds in parens) pizza dough. Cook time does not include bread machine dough cycle. You may optionally freeze the dough, or half the dough, for later use. To freeze: wrap in plastic wrap and transfer to a freezer bag; seal, label, and freeze for up to 3 months; to thaw, let dough stand at room temperature about 2 1/2 hours or till thawed; you may also thaw overnight in the refrigerator. UPDATE: after reading the first reviewer's comments about the cooking method, I have to confess that while I use this recipe for the dough itself, I've never followed these cooking instructions, nor have I tried to freeze the dough; I've included those instructions because they came with the recipe and I wanted to be thorough in adding this recipe to Zaar. I'm intrigued enough to want to try both cooking methods and freezing the dough and will report back! :)"

This is a great dough to work with. I made 2 batches of the 1# recipe; the first one, I made a round 14" thin-crust and did not pre-bake. It came out excellent after about a 10-minute bake time. The second one I rolled into a rectangle and put it in a 9x13 pan and pre-baked for 5 minutes; topped and baked for another 10. Outstanding pan-pizza! Or sicilian, whatever. I'll def use this again, thanks.

I used this for Recipe#331115 and it turned out great. I made 1 1/2 pounds and it came together fast. Thanks for sharing. Made for Photo Tag.

This was a nice, easy dough to put together and to work with. The dough is definitely 5 stars but the cooking method didn't produce the result I expected. Even cutting 2 minutes off of each baking (before toppings and after toppings) didn't stop the crust from being a little too crispy and hard. We really enjoyed the flavor and I would make this again, but I think I'll skip the pre-baking or lower the temp. Thanks for posting this easy recipe!
