Sour Cream Aioli
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ tablespoon minced garlic (from 1-2 cloves)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Homemade Pizza Dough
- 1 ½ teaspoon active dry yeast
- ¾ cup lukewarm water (105-115 degrees)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 ½ cups + 2-3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees and lightly dust a round baking pan with cornmeal.
- Stretch or roll dough out to fit on the prepared baking sheet and brush lightly with the olive oil, making sure to brush all the way to the edges of dough.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the dough.
- Bake the pizza for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Top pizza with bacon, tomatoes, and shredded lettuce. Drizzle sauce over the top of the pizza before serving.
Sour cream aioli
- Stir all the ingredients together in a bowl. Place in fridge to chill before drizzling over pizza.
Homemade Pizza Dough
- Mix yeast and water in a large bowl and let rest for 2 minutes.
- Stir salt, extra-virgin olive oil, and honey into the mixture.
- With a wooden spoon, mix 1 ½ cups + 2 tablespoon flour into the mixture. If dough feels too wet, you can add in another tablespoon flour. Form dough into a ball, gently knead a few times in the bowl.
- Cover bowl with a kitchen towel and let rest in a warm spot for about 2 hours, so dough can rise.
