How to Make No Yeast Pizza Dough
First, preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, or prepare your pizza pan to your preference or instructions.
Then in a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add in the butter and pour in the milk. Using a dough hook attachment on a stand mixer, mix on low speed until one ball of dough forms. (This can be made without a mixer, you will just stir until you have a ball of dough that forms)
Next, sprinkle flour onto a rolling pin and your hands, remove the ball of dough from the mixing bowl and pat down with flour to help form into a solid ball. The dough may be slightly sticky straight from the mixer, but just a small amount of flour will help it form into a ball.
Roll the no yeast pizza dough into a ball and set onto the prepared baking sheet. Using the rolling pin coated with flour roll out the dough to desired thickness, I find best results are to keep it about 1/4 of an inch thick.
Finally, spread with pizza sauce and top with desired toppings. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove the pizza from oven, allow time for it to briefly cool and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

Store in the freezer for up to 2 months. Bake frozen pizza at 450 degrees F for 10-15 minutes until cooked through and cheese is melted.

WOW, WOW, WOW. This recipe is amazingly delicious. I’ve always loved pizza but developed an allergy to yeast in my teens. I had given up on ever being able to eat pizza again until I found this yeast-free recipe.I cannot thank you enough. THIS dough actually tastes better than yeast-dough.
Lydia that is SO exciting to hear!!! So happy you enjoyed the recipe and that you are able to enjoy pizza again 🙂 Thanks for sharing that!
This is a great recipe…… i’ve tried it and the kids love it, even our picky pizza guest! LOL thanks so much.
I was wondering if you’ve made this a day ahead of time, or done a bulk batch and froze it for future use? Thanks again!
Hi Nicki! I’m so happy you all like the pizza crust! I haven’t made it in bulk before, it’s so quick and easy to make it when I need it. Others have commented here that they have frozen it and it came out perfectly though! Good luck 🙂
Made this tonight for my brother. I used a lower fat butter, and 1/2 Tablespoon of baking powder and still turned out perfectly. He said it’s the absolute best crust he’s ever had. We were actually short on toppings so I decided to fold it into a Stromboli. Still worked perfectly well, and had that extra fluffiness because of the double dough. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Will definitely use it in the future, maybe adding in some wheat flour, too.
Thanks you so much Liz!! I’m so happy you guys enjoyed it 🙂
do you think spelt flour would work for this??
I used this recipe tonight after my yeast dough failed. I should have gone with this one first! Very easy and yummy! The kids loved it!
I made this crust last night with 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour and 1-1/4 cup of all purpose flour and it came out more thin crust like, instead of biscuit-like as some other users were posting about following this recipe verbatim. It was delicious, just thought I’d share that experience for anyone wondering about subbing with wheat flour.
Thank you so much for sharing that Christina! I’m going to have to give this a try myself 🙂
Do you know if you can substitute 1/2 of the flour with whole wheat flour to make it a bit more healthy?
This turned out SO good! I wonder if it would make good cinnamon rolls. I’ll try that next time.
What a great idea! I may have to try that too 🙂
Made pesto/veggie pizza using the dough recipe tonight for a quick dinner option, the dough was soft and came out very tasty! I’m definitely using the recipe again! Thanks and happy cooking.
I just made my pizza tonight using your recipe and it turned out great!! This will definitely be my go to recipe when I feel like pizza or when my niece and nephew come to visit!
Thanks!!
Thanks so much Nickie!
