Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to knead pizza dough with milk? Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Pour the sifted wheat flour into a bowl. It is better to sift the flour several times to make the dough more airy and the products made from it tastier and more tender. Add salt and sugar to the flour and mix. Read about the properties of flour in a separate article at the end of this recipe.

Step 2

Step 2
Pour dry yeast into a glass of milk heated to 36-40 degrees and stir until it dissolves. The milk should be warm, but not scalding, otherwise the yeast will die. Some housewives immediately put dry yeast in a bowl with dry ingredients, but I believe that the yeast activates faster after dissolving it in a warm environment. You will learn all the intricacies of working with yeast in the article at the end of the recipe.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour the milk-yeast mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly with a spatula or spoon until the dough begins to come together into a homogeneous mass.

Step 4

Step 4
When the mixture becomes more homogeneous and the flour has absorbed all the liquid, pour olive oil into the bowl. Continue stirring the ingredients. Mix the butter into the dough, first with a spoon, then with your hands, until the dough reaches the desired consistency: elastic and smooth and no longer sticks to your hands. If necessary, add more flour, but little by little so as not to overfill the dough with flour.

Step 5

Step 5
You need to knead the dough for quite a long time, yeast dough loves your hands, and the longer the kneading, the better the baked goods from such dough will turn out. Cover the bowl with the dough with a cotton towel and place in a warm place for 40-50 minutes. While the dough is warm, you can prepare the pizza toppings.

Step 6

Step 6
After the specified time, the dough should double in size. Knead the pizza dough with milk and yeast and proceed to preparing the pizza and baking it. Bon appetit!
