Master Dough

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Pizza/flatbread

Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm whole milk, divided
  • 1 package active dry yeast
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 1 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 3/4 cup warm milk and yeast. Let stand until mixture is foamy, about 10 minutes.

  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, stir together melted butter, sugar, sour cream, egg, and remaining 1/4 cup warm milk.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 1/2 cups flour and salt. Add half of flour mixture to butter mixture. With mixer on low speed, add yeast mixture, beating just until combined. Beat in remaining flour mixture. Switch to the dough hook attachment. Beat at medium speed until dough is smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes, adding remaining 1/2 cup flour if needed. (Dough should not be sticky.)

  4. Spray a large bowl with cooking spray. Place dough in bowl, turning to grease top. Loosely cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
