Brooklyn Style Pizza Dough

Share

This recipe is my number one Brooklyn Style Pizza Dough. One of my favorite things to do when I visit New York City is to cross the Brooklyn Bridge and spend a day wandering around the borough of Brooklyn. When I am there I always treat myself to a slice (or two!) of Brooklyn style pizza which is very thin and crispy compared to other pizza dough. It has taken me some time, but I think I have perfected the dough recipe to make at home. This recipe requires flour, water, yeast and salt to make the dough. I use my electric mixer with the dough hook attachment, but you could make and knead it by hand too.

This recipe makes enough for 2 thin 12-inch pizzas. I make this dough once a week for our traditional “Pizza Friday” family dinner. Once the dough is rolled out, I let the kids go crazy and add their favorite toppings.

To make the Brooklyn Style Pizza Dough, you will need the following ingredients:

So, how to make Brooklyn Style Pizza Dough?

Steps to make Brooklyn Style Pizza Dough

1

Combine the ingredients

5

Combine 2 cups bread flour, water, yeast, and salt in the electric mixer bowl.

2

Mix. Leave the dough to rise.

25

Mix on lowest speed for about 2 minutes using the dough hook attachment. The ingredients should be blended together but still moist. Cover the bowl with a towel and allow the dough to double in volume. This should take around 20 minutes.

3

Mix and add remaining flour

5

Return the bowl to the electric mixer and mix on low speed for about 5 minutes, until dough has come together. Add in the remaining flour slowly until a soft, sticky dough forms.

4

Leave the dough to rest

20

Again, cover the bowl with the towel and allow the dough to rest for another 20 minutes.

5

Oil a container and prepare a work surface

1

Lightly coat a container with olive oil and lightly dust a work surface with flour.

6

Knead the pizza dough. Refrigerate.

5

Transfer the dough to the floured work surface. Knead the dough until it is soft on the outside, but still moist inside. Shape the pizza dough into a ball and place in the container.
Leave the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 day. It will keep in the fridge for up to 7 days.

7

Making the pizza

15

When you wish to make your Brooklyn style pizza, simply remove the dough from the refrigerator and all to warm up for 5-10 minutes. Divide the dough into two balls. Roll them out and place them in a pizza pan.

8

Add toppings and bake

20

Add your favorite pizza toppings. Bake the pizza in preheated oven (500°F) for 10-15 minutes until the dough is brown around the edges and charred on the bottom.

9

Serve

5

Allow to cool slightly before slicing and eating the pizza.
