Making homemade pizza doesn’t have to be hard or time-consuming. Most of the pizza dough recipes call for the dough to rise before shaping it. It can take 30-45 minutes for the dough to rise.

Which is fine if you think ahead and start it early enough. But if you don’t have the time to wait for the pizza dough to rise, this no rise pizza dough recipe is perfect.

Since we eat pizza or some form of pizza at least twice a month, I use this no rise pizza dough recipe all the time. In about 30 minutes I can make three thin crust pizzas from scratch for our family.

If you don’t need three pizzas you can divide the dough, use what you need and freeze the rest for a later meal. I’ve tried it a few times and it’s worked well each time, just be sure to take the dough out of the freezer to thaw well before you need it.

Tips for Making No Rise Pizza Dough

✳︎ Start with warm water to proof the yeast. Not hot though as that will kill the yeast.

✳︎ Add enough flour to make a nice dough that isn’t dry.

✳︎ Knead until smooth, usually this takes about 5 minutes and builds up the gluten needed for the structure of the dough.

✳︎ Divide and use for pizza, pizza pockets, stromboli, anything that calls for pizza dough.

  1. This is great, but there are no instructions for baking. How hot the oven should be or how long it should bake

    1. Sorry about that Cynthia. Here’s the instructions. Make your pizza, place it on a cookie sheet or pizza pan or stone and bake at 500 degrees for about 10 minutes. Be sure to check it after 7-8 to make sure it’s not cooking too fast.

      1. Thank you Shelly! BTW. I made the recipe last night. It was by far, the best pizza crust I have ever made. Wonderful recipe that I will continue to use!

  2. Thank You and I’m looking forward to trying the recipe! I was just wondering how long it takes for “Let sit and proof. Bubbles should form on the top.” 5 minutes, 10 or more?

    1. Deborah, I use all purpose flour in this recipe and I think the rapid rise yeast should work out well. I use a different brand but I think it should work fine.

  3. Hands down, this is a great dough, made it last night and again 2day. Love it, love it….i cut back the salt just a tad…worked up wonderful, has a great chew, and it browned nicely giving it a lovely patina. Thanks 4 the recipe!

  4. Love this! It’s our go to crust recipe! We hadn’t made it in a while but tonight when tempted to order out even though we are cutting down on doing so, my hubby suggested making pizza instead. Sitting at the table eating before the local pizza place would even be anywhere near ready for us to pick up!

  5. so good and easy. Due to various diet restrictions, frozen pizza night ends up being a 30+ dollar affair…I was able to make 2 of the 3 we need for FAR less expensive. I’ll be making the pizza sauce seasoning mix to keep on hand, so it will be even easier and cheaper. Thank you so much. So fast and easy…my daughter was shocked it was already done!

    1. Autumn, yes 450 is good. My old oven only went to 450 also and it would take a bit longer to bake but the pizza still turned out good. I hope that helps.

  6. I was in a hurry to come up with a last minute dinner idea and this pizza crust recipe saved the day!
    It was quick and easy to put together and the resulting pizza got a big thumbs up from everyone in my family.
    Thanks so much for helping save the dinner day for us tonight! 🙂

    1. Angela, I have made a few crusts ahead and cook them part of the way (about half the time so the crust holds its shape but doesn’t get browned) for the freezer to bake later in the oven. I’ve never tried it in an air fryer, but I would think it would work just as good as the oven method. I hope that helps.

  7. I made this a couple weeks ago and it was a HIT! We baked pizzas in our outdoor pizza oven! A.MAZ.ING!!
    I making it again today for a big family pizza party tomorrow.
    I sure hope it’s ok to store wrapped in Siran wrap in the refrigerator until tomorrow. Will it still rise if I do this?

    1. Terri, I’m a little late answering your question. But yes, you can store the dough overnight in the refrigerator covered. It will rise some in the fridge but just punch it down before you roll it out. Sorry I couldn’t get back to you as quick as you needed the help.

  8. I have a question about homemade yeast bread. I make wheat and white/wheat yeast bread for my family using a bread machine. The bread is great but it’s extremely dry from day one! Nobody complains but I’m curious if there is something I could add to make it less dry. Thank you.

  9. I make pizza with this recipe every week and my family thinks it tastes so professional – best recipe ever! I even experimented with using it on our Blackstone grill and it worked great. Thank you!

      1. We did 6 but with all of the toppings, they were a bit too big for 1 person. So I’d say 8 is probably about right. We really enjoyed them! Will definitely keep this recipe! Thank you for sharing!

  10. I use the three cups of flour it was to dry. I did use 11/4 cups of water. It was not sticky like yours. So I guess I will try it again with out using all of the three cups and save some of it for kneading.

    1. Debbis, Start out with 2.5 cups of flour first, that may be all you need then add the extra if needed while kneading. I hope you give the recipe a try again, we love it and make it once a week for Friday night pizza night.

    1. Monty, I make 3 twelve inch think crust pizzas with one batch of dough. But if you like thicker crust, you’ll likely want to make just two. I hope that helps.

  11. Loved this recipe, i made it with 00 Tipo Italian flour and baked it on parchment paper and put it on our Traegar grill!! You’ll never go back to store bought pizza!!
