Easy Caprese No Yeast Pizza Dough, a simple, easy and so delicious Pizza. No yeast makes it the perfect weeknight meal. Fresh Tomatoes, Basil and Mozzarella make it yummy and healthy.

Sometimes it is difficult to find yeast, so making bread at home can be a challenge, so why not try this Rustic No Yeast Bread.

You know the saying “an apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”, well I have to say in a lot of cases it is right on the mark. My husband and I have started our first year garden of summer vegetables after a not so bad first year of a fall/winter veggies garden.

I have been hinting for years about starting our own garden, we always had an excuse,  no time, too much work and the best of all with all the veggies my mother-in-law plants she could feed half the town. So now excuses aside we are on our way.

And what better way to use up some of the garden’s best veggies then with a Pizza with no yeast added! With only five ingredients flour, baking powder, salt, olive oil and water you will be well on your way to pizza night any day of the week!

How to make a Pizza dough without yeast

  • In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Make a well in the middle and add the olive oil and some of the water to start, stir together with a fork then add remaining the water.
  • Move to a lightly floured flat surface, knead for approximately 2 or 3 minutes and form into a smooth dough ball,  cover with a bowl and let sit for 15 minutes.
  • Place the dough on lightly greased pizza pan or cookie sheet and with your fingers form into desired shape (circle, oval or square) to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake for approximately 13- 15 minutes or until golden.

I decided to bake the crust and then top it with a Caprese topping. Which is sliced fresh tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese and fresh basil.

If you prefer you can make a traditional pizza and top the raw dough with a simple tomato sauce or what we prefer are about 10-15  grape or cherry tomatoes sliced in half then tossed with 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil, a sprinkle of salt, fresh basil and a sprinkle of oregano.

Of course why not add a couple of your favourite additions on top and don’t forget to finish it off with shredded firm mozzarella.

Can the dough be made in a mixer?

I usually make this no yeast dough by hand but it certainly can be made in a mixer with the dough hook attachment.

Nothing better than fresh tomatoes, you can bottle, freeze, Dry and Fry them and of course make one of our favourite lunch time dishes a caprese salad. Better yet let’s make this delicious Easy Caprese No Yeast Pizza Dough.

Only 5 ingredients to make a Delicious No Yeast Pizza Dough

  1. Flour
  2. Baking Powder
  3. Salt
  4. Olive Oil
  5. Water

Did I mention I think this would make a great appetizer,  instead of doing it in a round pizza pan spread the dough in a square or rectangle one and cut into small bite size pieces.

In Italy when you go to some local bakeries they have a vast assortment of different types of pizza and a lot of them are with a pizza dough base and a cold topping, great combination I have to say, especially this Italian Shrimp Pizza.

So when you want pizza but don’t have time to wait for the dough to rise, then why not try this No Yeast Pizza Dough? So good. Buon Appetito!

        I just wanted to let you know that I have a yeast allergy** and have tried SO many recipes. This is BY FAR the best recipe I’ve ever tried. I’m so happy to have a pizza I like. Thank you so much!

        How long would you cook it from raw dough with toppings on it? And could you use a pizza stone? Sounds delicious cant wait to make it. Thanks

          Hi Marsha, I would think it would be about 10-15 minutes to cook with toppings on a pizza stone.

        We prefer a thin crust Pizza. Is this dough a “thin” crust recipe?

          Hi Dave, you can make this dough thin or thick crust, depends on how thin you roll it. 🙂

          OK Thanks. Just thought that the yeast might be a factor in rising and deny the thin aspect.

        Hi,
        I was wondering if I could substitute the all purpose flour with almond flour instead?
        Thanks

          Hi Tessa, I can’t really say because I have never made this recipe with almond flour, because it doesn’t have any gluten it becomes a bit complicated. Sorry.

        The metric measurement is way off. It said 250g of flour to 313g of water. It turned out like pancake batter! Best to use measurement in cups. Or if you could kindly change the metric measurement so it doesnt mislead anyone else, Rosemary. Thanks
