Recipe FAQs

What can I use instead of yeast in pizza dough?

The correct combination of baking powder with flour and salt is a great substitution for yeast in pizza dough. It is a great leavening agent and will make the dough rise in the oven and have a similar texture to dough with yeast.

When we lived in Indiana, there was a pizza place that used this kind of dough, and I have a copycat recipe for their pizza. The recipe I have uses regular flour and it turns out really good, and it is so easy!
