The flavor of this dough is faintly cheesy and the texture softer than most doughs. If you like a less chewy crust, you will enjoy this one.

• 4 to 5 cups of All-Purpose Flour
• 1 1/2 cups of Buttermilk
• 1/2 cup (1/4 pound) of Butter
• 3 tablespoons of Light Brown Sugar
• 1 teaspoon of Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of Baking Powder
• 1/2 cup of Water
• 1 tablespoon of Vegetable Oil
• 2 packs of Dry Yeast

Put the butter and the buttermilk in a saucepan and place it over a low flame. Warm the milk slowly so the butter melts in it. Do not let the milk get hot. Stir the yeast and sugar into 1/2 cup of warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Sift 4 cups of flour, the salt, and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir in the warm milk and melted butter. Add the yeast mixture. Mix the ingredients thoroughly and then turn them out onto a floured board. Knead for 8 minutes, incorporating more flour into the dough if necessary to keep it from being too sticky. When the dough has reached a smooth consistency, put it in a clean bowl and brush vegetable oil over the top of the dough. Cover with a clean towel and place in a warm, draft-free place for 1 1/2 hours.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 1/2 cups of All Purpose Flour

• 1 1/2 cups of Whole Wheat Flour

• 1/4 Cornmeal

• 2 teaspoons of Baking Powder

• 1 teaspoon of Salt

• 1 1/2 cups of Water (May need to add a little more for consistency)

Combine the dry ingredients first, add water, then mix together with your hands. When the consistency is correct, the dough will come away from the bowl and form a nice dough ball. Press onto a non-stick cookie sheet or pizza pan. Bake the crust for approximately 10-15 minutes at 400 degree's. Remove from the oven and your favorite pizza toppings and cook for another 15 minutes.
