Artisan Bread in Five’s Pizza Crust
Updated April 28, 2011
Ok, I am sure everyone is sick of me talking about how amazing the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day is, but in case you missed that memo I will remind you today:)
We made the master boule recipe and had huge success! We made a big crusty rustic loaf, 2 French baguettes, and 2 pizzas with just one recipe. It was so nice to have the dough in the fridge, whenever we were craving fresh bread or pizza, we just cut off a portion of the dough. This method really is magic.
Josh is a pizza fanatic, so of course we had to see if the dough lived up to our high pizza standards. We made 2 thin crust pizzas and the results were outstanding! The crust was perfect and again, it was SO easy!
So if you still haven’t tried this method, get moving! You will be so glad you did! I love that you can make bread, pizza, calzones, sticky buns, bagels, etc. Your choices are endless! So get the book and get baking!! Anyone can do it, I promise!
I’m not sick of you talking about the artisan bread! You know why? because it reminds me to finally frigging make the darn bread already! lol
It’s 8am and I would MUCH rather have pizza with my morning latte right now.
Pizza is my favorite way to use this crust! I also use it for stromboli.
Yum, all this take about bread/dough making is making me want to make some!! : ) I used to frequently make bagels but haven’t in a very long time! Thanks for sharing.
p.s. That pizza looks phenomenal!!
I don’t have this book I’ll have to go get it today. I’ll let you know my results.
It truely is a magical method of making bread!
Ooooh, yum!!
I think I need to have this book! My birthday is coming up, I’ll have to ask my husband for it! The pizza looks out of this world! I sooo would love a slice right now…even though it’s only 8:30am!
I definitely need to get moving and try this method!!
I am definitely giving this a try. What a great recipe for hectic days!
That pizza looks equally artisan 🙂 I envy Josh….I’d kill to sit on the couch and have someone deliver home-made pizza 😀
My first attempt at pizza dough wasn’t the greatest. I might just have to try this, though, it looks fabuolous!
I love hearing you talk about fresh bread it makes me wish I had some right now. I have the book on my birthday wish list so I hope my hubby buys it as an early gift!
I keep wanting to make that bread and I never get around to it!
Your pizza looks GREAT!!
Dawn-Try it already:)
Robin Sue-We will have to try stromboli next, great idea!
Lesley-There is a bagel recipe in the book too!
Foodie w/Little Thyme-Let me know if you try it!
Kristen-This would be a great b-day gift!
A and N-Josh actually is in charge of the pizza dough. I call him the Dough Boy, he is really good. I am glad he helps out!
Allie-I hope the hubby gets the hint..ha!
Artisan Bread is one of my “go to’s”. I’ve loved everything I’ve made from that book! I can’t believe that I’ve never tried the pizza dough. It looks fab!
Susan-I hope you try the pizza crust, it really is so good!
that crust looks just amazing! i really need to try this bread. the pizza looks super yummy 🙂
What a beautiful pizza! Nice crust!
Cheers,
Rosa
What a delicious looking pizza! I bought the book a while ago but have yet to use it. Maybe this is the push I need!
Seriously gorgeous crust and I love your toppings!!! I wish I’d been there!
Cheers, Zoë
What a great idea to make pizza with this yummy dough – love all the veggies on it!
Cristine-I hope you try it and soon!
Zoe-Thanks for such a fabulous book! We are hooked!
Isn’t this method the greatest thing ever? Your pizza looks so damn good! Like good-for-breakfast-good.
That looks great. I will have to give this a try sometime.
Sick of bread? Is that an actual possibility? The pizza looks so good! I am def much more of a thin crust fan! How are you feeling today?? I’m telling you- I’ve had almost no problems since moving up my protein…I really really hope it continues!
The book is awesome and you pizza looks terrific.
Nice pizza! I have really got to get this book. I keep seeing so many wonderful creations from it.
I’ve heard CB talking about this bread too. I’m drooling. That pizza looks phenomenal!!
Yeah! You know that I am a believer — I made the bread at your urging, and it IS fabulous! I’ve done the boule and the baguettes, and still have some dough left. I am going to make this pizza tonight! We’ve got lots of veggies to use up!
Right now I’m making sandwiches on the panini press with the master recipe: Roll out dough into individual circles, fill like a calzone, seal up, and toss on the press until they’re done.
Bagels are next on my list!
Couldn't find the book here & finally found the recipe on MotherEarth I think. I've made the boulle (part oat & part whole wheat flour added)=YUM! I've got dough in the fridge now & I'm thinking pizza for the weekend. Thanks for the inspiration!
Cathy-I am so glad you tried it. Let me know how the pizza works out!
Sarah-I want to try the bagels too!
Passionate About Baking-I want to try it with whole wheat flour, did it work?
I really need to get the book – the artisan bread looks perfect as does this pizza.
You’ve convinced me! I have to get the book. I think it was when you said “whenever we were craving fresh bread or pizza, we just cut off a portion of the dough.” That rocks! The pizza looks awesome!
I have been using whatever Art-in-5 dought I have going on in the fridge for quickie pizza crusts too – I agree, just one more reason that this is a great book to have on hand – for beginners and seasoned bakers alike.
LOVE homemade pizza. I’m making pizza tomorrow night using one of Peter Reinhart’s dough recipes.
Nope, not sick of bread, never! taking you at your word that this is the easiest bread to make I ordered the book, should be here Saturday. I’ll let you know how it goes and email ya with any questions. 😉

Reeni-I am glad I convinced you:)

Just borrowed this book from my library. That pizza looks delicious so I guess I should open the book and make some dough!

Tracey-Do try it. You will love it.
Kym-When can you come over? We should have a pizza night!

I never tire of bread! Thanks for posting all of these…it’s great inspiration.
I’m not sick of it! I’m so inspired to get this book!!! LOVE that crust!!!
I have this book, but haven’t looked at it yet, what is wrong with me??? That pizza looks fantastic!! I love the veggies.
The book sounds like it has a lot of good stuff in it and the crust looks really yummy!
i’ll say it here and now–i shall never tire of pizza. 🙂
your toppings are so colorful and yummy, and this is completely wonderful.
I really need to make this bread:)
I just ordered this book and got it in the mail the other day. I am excited to try everything. The pizza looks wonderful!
What a delicious looking pizza! I have this book, so I will have to redisocver it and start baking some bread …
YUM! I really want to try that! Looks wonderful.
The crust looks delicious! My favorite part, actually 🙂
Your pizza looks fabulous! Thanks for sharing this book, I have never heard of it. I may have to check it out. 🙂
We love homemade pizza and bread! I can’t wait to try your ricotta recipes! Thanks so much!
I really must get this book. I have never made my own bread, and yours looks so good, as does the pizza.

Oh. My. Gosh. That Snickerdoodle blondie looks absolutley amazing! Oh, and pizza is pretty fantastic as well 🙂

You have me sold on Artisan Bread in 5 minutes. This pizza looks so fabulous. I want artisan bread in 5 minutes. I really need to get into my kitchen to take care of some much needed bread-making/pizza-making!
I was browsing on amazon.com and the #1 selling book is Artisan Bread in 5 minutes. I have yet to buy it, but it’s on my list.
It’s amazing what blogging can do!
Your pizza looks delicious – thanks for the book recommendation! Is there a yummy whole wheat pizza dough recipe in it?
I’ve tried this dough before and loved it!
Talk, rave, promote all you want about ABin5…best damn book in my arsenal so far.
The pizza looks fab and I can’t wait to try it out meself!
I like everything that I’ve made so far from this book. I tried making pizza with the olive oil dough, but it didn’t work as well as my go-to pizza dough recipe. And I love the convenience of having dough in the fridge all the time.
The book sounds amazing and will have check it out at amazon. Your pizzas turned out perfecto!

As always, your pizza looks delicious. I went to that link and it’s like a blog. Is there a beginning to how to really start on that Artisan bread because I do want to try it. I will have to check it out again. If I can do it I would be so happy because I don’t doughs and breads ever from scratch.
That book is on my Amazon wishlist! I love making pizza!
I love this book and how versatile the master recipe is.
Love this book and so nice to see that so many people are baking from it. Haven’t tried the pizza crust recipe just yet 🙂
I made the ABin5 today. We loved the taste of the bread and I can see it getting tastier as the days go by. Kind of like a lazy mans sourdough. I like that. I love that its there in the fridge waiting for its star roll in some kind of bread or pizza. I really need to get the book now.
