My family loves pizza, but me, not so much. So we compromise and I make an easy sourdough pizza crust that is absolutely devine. We ALL love it, and that’s kind of the point. It’s literally the only pizza crust that I truly enjoy.
The best part is that you can use this crust right away. You only have to let it rise for about an hour. Though you can let it rise for more if you’d like!
Using Sourdough Discard for Pizza Crust
When you make sourdough, every single day you’ll have sourdough discard. Instead of throwing it away, a lot of people try to find something to make with it. This sourdough pizza crust recipe is an incredible way to use sourdough discard.
Here are some other recipes you might enjoy that you can use with sourdough discard:

- Place in a greased bowl and allow to rise for at least 2 hours.
- Once risen, thinly roll out dough onto your greased pizza pan. Should be an inch or less thick.
- Place toppings on your pizza and let set for 30 mins.
- Bake your sourdough pizza at 500 degrees (pre-heated) for about 8 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and starting to turn brown.

![[POST 1/2] -- I have written and re-written a blog post 100 times or more. And each time I delete it and start all over. And my heart realized that sometimes less words are more words. And right now, we need less noise. We need less people screaming opinions, options, and ignorance. We need quiet. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There's a reason the Bible says that God is in the still, small voice. What still small voice are you not hearing right now? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The reality is that I could write a thousand words about all the things happening right now in the world, but what it all boils down to is the human heart. The heart is deceitful above all things. It's why some people will agree with this post, and some people will condemn it. It's why there is hatred in the world. It's why there is racism in the world. It's why there is ignorance in the world. It's why there is confusion in the world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I will never pretend to understand what someone else walks through in their life. I will also never advocate any kind of hatred, from any race, from any religion, or any community. Period. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Can I tell you something? No government or law will change the way the human heart works. Only Jesus can do that. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No person shouting from the roof tops will change the hatred and deceitfulness that lays rest in the darkest parts of the human heart. Only Jesus can change that. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What we're seeing in the world today is a symptom of a world without Jesus. A world longing for a King. A symptom of a world where the church looks like the world instead of a set apart community of believers. A group of world changers in Christ. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can't change the hate that the Bible warns us about. But I can make a change within the four walls of my own home. I can talk about scriptures and love and Jesus daily. Because the real changes happens when we have hard conversations within our own communities, not boisterously online. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hi Amy,
I am trying my hand at sourdough bread (starter) making. It’s going to be interesting to see what happens. I tried a couple times only to see no results that were satisfactory. But maybe this time. I am on Day 6 of the King Arthur AP flour version, getting my starter from Dok Klaus’ wife, Virginia. WE will see. My discard is going to be used for pizza this evening. Wish me luck.
My initial inspiration was this very dark round loaf that my Finnish grandmother used to make for us when they would come to visit. I a not sure when I will be confident enough to try that one. But here’s at least an attempt at sourdough, which is my favorite bread of all time.
Good luck, Sylvia! You can do it!
