Description

Learn how to make Pizza Hut’s famous dough at home with this easy recipe. Perfect for creating your own customized pizzas!


Ingredients

Scale

Dough:

  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 1/3 cups warm water (110°F)
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup nonfat dry milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour

Coating:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for coating pans)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Dissolve yeast in warm water, add sugar, dry milk, salt, and oil. Gradually mix in flour to form a soft dough. Knead for 8-10 minutes.
  2. Rise the Dough: Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size (1-1 1/2 hours).
  3. Divide and Shape: Punch down the dough, divide into portions, and shape into pans coated with olive oil. Let rest for 20-30 minutes.
  4. Preheat and Bake: Preheat oven to 475°F, add toppings, and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden.

Notes

  • For a classic Pizza Hut pan-style crust, use a dark pizza pan and let the dough rise again in the pan before baking.
  • This dough freezes well—wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months.
