I used to buy the Boboli pizza crusts but the economy is bad right now and they are expensive! Might as well order a pizza for the cost of those! So I use this homemade, super simple and easy thin crust pizza and we really enjoy it. We love sausage but you can do whatever pizza toppings you like... sky is the limit!
Thin Crust Homemade Pizza
In a bowl mix the following:
1 cup flour
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
Mix well with a spoon. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Use parchment paper for easy clean up. Put paper (this is not a must) on a large cookie sheet. Spoon the dough out evenly all over the cookie sheet. It looks like it will stick bad to the pan, but once it cooks, it won't! I usually use a spatula to spread it all evenly.
Do not put any toppings on yet. Bake for 20 minutes by itself.
While the dough bakes, open a can of tomato sauce and put it into a small sauce pan. Add italian spices to taste. I use a combo (without measuring) of basil, thyme, oregano, herbes de provence, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Let simmer while the dough bakes. If you don't to do this step, just buy pre made pizza sauce.
Once the dough is done (just the edges should be getting brown) take out of the oven. Spread the sauce all over. Top with your favorites. In the picture, I have diced onions, sliced olives, cooked italian sausage, and colby jack shredded cheese. Put your toppings on, top with shredded cheese, and put back in the 400 degree oven for 10 minutes.
Your cheese should be nice and melted, and your pizza should be thin and crispy. Enjoy!
