Ingredients 

Ingredients (Dough)

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon instant dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 cups water, 1 tbsp cold water, 40°F (4°C)
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, adjust to taste
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for oiling containers and dough balls

Ingredients (Toppings)

  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce , or marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Toppings of choice: pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, olives, etc.
  • Fresh basil or herbs, optional
  • Olive oil, for brushing crust

Instructions

  • In a food processor, combine 4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon instant dry yeast. Pulse a few times, then add 1 1/2 cups water while processing until a rough dough ball forms. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
  • Sprinkle 1 teaspoon Kosher salt on the dough, then process until smooth, about 20–30 seconds. Check that the dough temperature reaches 75°F (24°C). Transfer to a lightly Extra-virgin olive oil bowl and knead once or twice by hand until smooth. Cover and rest for 45 minutes.
  • With lightly moistened hands, knead the dough until uniform, about 5–10 seconds. Cover and let it sit at room temperature until puffy and nearly doubled, 60–120 minutes.
  • Transfer dough to a floured surface. For 12-inch pizzas, divide into four 225g (8 oz) balls; for 16-inch pizzas, divide into three 300g (10.5 oz) balls. Smooth each into a round ball, lightly coat with oil, and place in lidded containers or on an oiled tray. Refrigerate at least 24 hours, up to 4 days.
  • On the day of baking, remove dough balls from the refrigerator and let them warm, covered, 1–2 hours, until at least 60°F (15.5°C).
  • Gently stretch each dough ball into a pizza base. Add your favorite 1/2 cup pizza sauce , 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, and Toppings of choice: pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, olives, etc.
  • Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill. Bake each pizza until crust is golden and toppings are cooked, about 8–12 minutes depending on thickness and toppings.
  • Remove pizza carefully, slice, and enjoy your fresh, flavorful woodfire-style pizza!
