Basic Pizza Dough (BM method)

This recipe makes 1 big/regular pizza. 

Easy to use a breadmaker. Just dump everything and wait 1 1/2 hour and you get a perfect dough. 😁 Perfect for me. 😬

Note. 

Must remember to roll into thinner crust. #3 prefers really thin crust.

And also planning to buy a dough mat.... soon. 

#2 mixed in fresh chopped garlic into the tomato puree. Really good coz we are garlic lovers. 😄
