Equipment

Ingredients

3 cups bread flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¾ teaspoon baking powder
1 (12 ounce) cold beer
oil for greasing the bowl
cornmeal optional

Instructions

Add flour, salt, and baking powder to the bowl of your stand mixer. Whisk to combine.
Pour in beer. Use the dough attachment to mix until the dough clears the sides of the bowl.
Continue to knead dough in the stand mixer for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove dough from the bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil and rotate the dough in the oil to coat all sides. Cover and let rest for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
On a clean, lightly floured surface, roll the dough out using a rolling pin until about ¼ to ½ inch thick. Lightly flour the rolling pin or pizza dough as needed to prevent sticking.
Place pizza dough on a pizza pan dusted with cornmeal and brush the top of the dough with additional olive oil. Poke the middle of the crust with a fork in a few different places.
Par-bake crust for 3 to 5 minutes.
Add your favorite toppings and finish baking for another 10 to 15 minutes.

Notes

If you don't want to use a stand mixer for this recipe, you can still knead this dough by hand. Just flour your counter well and knead until the dough is no longer sticky.
If you’re not a beer drinker, many grocery stores sell individual cans. However, if you can only find a 6-pack, check out my dutch oven chili too.
