It’s Alive!

Yep, you read that right, yeast is a living organism. It’s the life of yeast that makes bread and pizza dough tender, airy, and light. Yeast turns your bread and pizza from homemade into Instagram-worthy show stars. Just like you, yeast needs a few things to live: moisture, food, warm temperatures, and just the right lighting. When one of these needs isn’t met, the yeast dies and doesn’t work its magic. However, under just the right conditions, the yeast will bubble up and create pockets of air. This is how bread develops those big, airy holes inside. Yeast also gives your Keto baking goodies a delicious, artisan taste.

Using And Storing Keto Pizza Crust With Yeast

Now that yeast is involved, you can’t be handling your Keto pizza dough all willy-nilly! If you want to make this pizza dough in advance to bake later, follow these steps. When you’re done mixing your pizza dough, let the dough rise as directed for 15 minutes but leave it in your mixing bowl. After rising, portion the dough into as many individual portions as you desire and allow the separated portions to rest (covered) for another 10 minutes. Then, wrap each portion and store in your freezer or refrigerator. Before baking your Keto pizza dough, you will need to let the dough rise near a warm oven until it rises.
