Recipe - Beer Pizza

3 cup Unbleached Flour; Extra For
Dusting
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
One half teaspoon Salt
1 12 Oz Can Light Or Dark Beer
Olive Oil For Greasing
3 cup Grated Part Skim Mozzarella
Cheese

TOPPINGS OF YOUR CHOICE
Diced Tomatoes; Garlic,
Mushrooms
; Etc

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine the flour, baking powder
and salt in a large bowl and mix thoroughly. Pour in the beer and mix
well. The dough will be sticky.

2.Spread a handful of flour on your work surface and dump the dough
onto it. Toss the dough around to coat with the flour and prevent
from sticking. Knead it 2 or 3 times to make it pliable. Shape the
dough into a ball then divide it to make two.

3. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets. Use a rolling pin to roll each
ball into an 11 or 12 inch circle, or place the balls on the baking
sheets and use your hands to flatten them into 11 or 12 inch circles,
(If you are not ready to cook the pizza now, you can place the pans
directly into the freezer to stop any rising action of the dough.
Remove from freezer about
30 minutes before cooking.)

4. Sprinkle 1 One half cups of the cheese on each crust. Top with the
toppings of your choice. (Alternatively you can make a traditional
version with pizza sauce underneath the cheese just be certain to
spread a thin layer)

5.Bake 1215 minutes or until golden brown on top and underneath.
Makes two 1112 inch pizzas.
