This was great!  I doubled the recipe and used half white / half wheat flour.

I used tomato paste, Daiya (vegan "cheese"), onion and green pepper.

I will definitely make this again!

This didn't come out well for me at all. I wasn't sure what type of yeast to use so I just used whatever I had and I also used whole-wheat flour so that could have been why. It was extremely flat, carboardy tasting and it separated into large flat pieces.

Not too bad. The best I've tried so far, but not quite right. I made this twice. It was the perfect consistency when I used the butter, but I used oil the second time and had to add a TON of flour to get it to be not so sticky. So stick with the butter!

ok, yes. me likey!!

I did apple sauce instead of oil and did half whole wheat half unbleached. Love not having to wait an hour for the dough to rise.  :P

I haven't made this exact recipe but I make something almost exactly like it except I use 1 cup sourdough starter with 1 cup flour, and the rest of the ingredients listed.  Is is so good.  Funny that I already use almost this exact recipe but with sourdough starter instead of yeast.

This really is easy, yummy, and quick!  I rarely use yeast when making pizza dough because I usually don't have any or I don't have the time.  I was able to make the thinnest thin crust, so tasty!  This will be my go-to crust recipe from here on in.

This definitely was quick to make! I used whole wheat flour. My crust did not rise at all, & I was left with a flat crust, that was edible, but certainly not the best crust I have ever tried. Thanks for the recipe though!
