Sample Pics of what the crust looks like when done

Crust Serves 5

      Thick Crust Pizza Dough 2#
           (All ingredients at room temperature - works best with a bread machine)

    10  ounces water
    3/4  teaspoon salt
    3  tablespoons olive oil
    4  cups all-purpose flour
    2  tsp active baker's yeast
   1  tablespoon garlic powder
    2  tablespoons  parmesan cheese

Combine all ingredients into the bread pan. Select Dough setting. Press start/stop. When unit signal and display reads 0:00, press start/stop and remove the dough.

If you do not have a bread machine, combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix until very well blended. On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 15 minutes. Cover and let rise for about 1/2 hour in a warm area. Pat down when ready to use.

Pat the dough in a greased 14 inch round pizza pan. For even thicker crust use a smaller pan.

Top with your favorite lowfat toppings.

Notes:    This will smell up your whole house, but well worth it!!
