Ingredients

• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• ⅓ cup oil
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or to taste
• 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
• 1 envelope Fleischmann's® Pizza Crust Yeast
• 1 ⅓ cups warm water (120 to 130 degrees F/50 degrees C)
• ½ cup pizza sauce, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Divide dough into 8 portions. Pat or roll dough on a well-floured counter to about 8-inch circles; they do not need to be perfect.

Step 2

Start a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat.

Step 3

Combine 2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add warm water and 1/3 cup oil; mix until well blended, about 1 minute. Gradually add enough flour to make a soft dough that forms a ball and is slightly sticky. Knead on a floured surface, adding additional flour if necessary, until smooth and elastic but not sticky, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Brush both sides of crusts with additional oil. Using hands, lift each crust carefully and place on grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bottoms are lightly browned and tops look set. Using long handled tongs, remove crusts from grill and place on a baking sheet with grilled-sides facing up.

Step 5

Lightly add sauce to the top of each grilled crust, then top with mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Carefully slide pizzas back onto the grill. Cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes until bottom crusts are browned and cheese is melted. Remove from the grill and serve immediately.
