Pizza night is becoming a favorite on our homestead, and with this easy crust we can make from our sourdough starter (and a little delish homemade pizza sauce!) we can make fresh pizza anytime. We just got a Big Green Egg grill this year and we have been loving grilling homemade pizzas.
 
Instead of buying crust from the store or pizza parlor, I can make this Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough from scratch a few hours before enjoying. This crust gets really crispy on the outside and the bottom of the pizza, which holds the toppings so well! The flavor from the dried rosemary is fantastic, and it has a nice garlicky bite.

This Homemade Sourdough Pizza Crust Recipe Is

  • Herby
  • Garlicky
  • Slightly Tart from the sourdough starter
  • Earthy
  • Easy to make with sourdough discard
  • Vegan!

You can definitely switch up the herbs in this dough if you want different flavors: some basil and oregano would be delish!  I went with rosemary and garlic, because my homemade tomato paste pizza sauce features both of those herbs so I wanted it to compliment the sauce!

Pizza Recipes With Sourdough Starter Discard

This Sourdough Starter Pizza Dough recipe is the perfect way to use your sourdough discard from a starter.  I hate throwing out food (or rather, composting it!)- so I’m always looking for ways to reuse kitchen scraps to cut back on waste.  Instead of tossing your discard when you feed your sourdough starter, try this awesome recipe instead. I have a whole page on my site for recipes that use sourdough discard. That way you can add a hint of sourdough flavor to your baked goods, and cut back on food waste.

How Do I Make Pizza Crust with Sourdough Discard?

  1. Place 1 cup of your Sourdough starter in a large bowl.  Add the rest of the dough ingredients, and mix well to combine.
  2. Knead dough for 10 minutes until the dough begins to thicken and gluten strands begin to form.
  3. Allow dough to rest for 2-6 hours, covered, in a warm spot.
I love finding new ways to use my sourdough discard… aside from making the perfect sourdough bread, this is probably my favorite way to use the sourdough discard! Because, lets be honest, it’s always pizza time.

Let’s Bake the Perfect Sourdough Pizza!

  1. Divide the dough into 2 equal balls.  Each ball will make a 12 inch pizza.
  2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Roll the dough out to fill a 12 inch pizza pan or a 13x18inch sheet pan.  Allow dough to rest for 15 minutes.  Put on pizza sauce and any toppings but NOT the cheese yet.
  4. Place the pans of the dough, sauce, and toppings in the oven for 8 minutes.  Remove the pizza and add the cheese.  Cook for an additional 7 to 9 minutes, making sure the cheese has melted but the crust doesn’t burn.
  5. Remove from oven, cut into slices, and enjoy!

Should you put pineapple on pizza?

Pizza is amazing because its so versatile and customizable. Clearly, I am #TeamPineapple as love that salty/sweet balance on my pizza… and  I also loaded this one with red peppers, mushrooms, and onions because that’s what we had in the fridge that day. Pizza is super versatile and can be made with pretty much anything, for any meal of the day! This crust acts as an excellent building foundation for any pizza of your dreams.

    Great recipe! I’m new to the sourdough world and was looking for recipes for the discard. Tried this yesterday. It was so easy and I had great results. We loved it for our pizza last night. Will probably freeze the second ball of dough to use at a later date. Loved the added herbs to the dough. This recipe will definitely be in rotation for meal planning.

    This is my favourite pizza recipe. So straightforward and doesn’t need too much pre- planning. I also hate wasting my sourdough starter so this is good for my conscience too. I usually top with home made tomato paste, pepper, mushrooms, capers and vegan cashew cheese topping- fabulous!!

      Thank you so much David, so glad you like it – it’s definitely our go-to recipe as well for dough. I haven’t tried using vegan cashew cheese yet, but I certainly will 🙂
