Pizza Dough Recipe

This classic pizza dough is made with Wild Hive Pizza Flour 00, a finely milled and sifted 14% protein flour designed for strength, stretch, and beautiful oven spring. The result is a crust that’s crisp on the outside, chewy on the inside, and strong enough to hold generous toppings.

Whether you’re baking in a home oven, on a pizza stone, or in a high-heat setup, this dough delivers consistent structure, extensibility, and flavor.

Why This Recipe Works

Great pizza dough depends on protein strength and proper gluten development. In this recipe:

  • 14% protein supports strong gluten formation

  • Fine 00 milling allows smooth hydration and stretch

  • The dough develops elasticity without tearing

  • High heat produces excellent oven spring and blistered crust

The result is a balanced crust with chew, structure, and a clean bite — foldable but not floppy.

If you’ve made our No Knead Bread or Ciabatta, this recipe lets you experience that same protein strength in a pizza format.

About Wild Hive Pizza Flour 00

Wild Hive Pizza Flour 00 is freshly milled and formulated at 14% protein — the same strength as our Bread Flour 00 — but milled specifically for pizza applications. The fine texture promotes smooth hydration and extensibility, while the high protein content provides structure, rise, and durability under high heat.

For pizza, strength and stretch are everything — and flour performance makes the difference.
