To a large mixing bowl, add Bisquick, flour, baking powder, salt and optional Italian seasoning; whisk to combine.
Add hot water and olive oil to the bowl and using a dough whisk, stir to combine until the dough comes together and clears the sides of the bowl.
Cover bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 20 minutes.
The dough can be rolled out (below) for a 12-14-inch crust or 3-4 stromboli or calzones.

Preheat oven to 450°F. See notes for higher temperature.
Set the dough on a lightly floured work surface and sprinkle a little flour on top. Knead the dough for 15 seconds until it tightens.
Transfer the crust to a sheet of parchment paper or a well-oiled cookie sheet. **See Notes below
Use a rolling pin to roll the crust into a 12 to 14-inch circle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Use a large spoon to spread the sauce over the crust, leaving a 1-inch margin on the outer edge. Add desired toppings.
If using parchment paper, gently lift or slide the paper to move both the paper and the pizza onto a baking sheet.
Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, until the crust is golden and the center is bubbly.

We recommend using a cookie sheet, stone, or a baking pan without rimmed sides for baking. This allows the hot air to circulate the entire crust, creating the best possible rise and golden color.

Recipe Variations:

Extra rich dough: Substitute ¼ cup milk for part of the water in the recipe to create a richer, more tender dough. This adds a subtle creaminess that pairs well with white sauce and roasted veggies.
Garlic herb crust: Mix 2 tablespoons melted butter with minced garlic and Italian herbs, then brush it over the rolled dough before baking. This adds flavor and gives the Bisquick mix a beautifully golden edge.
Deep dish-style pizza: Use 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in place of olive oil and press the dough into a greased cast iron skillet. The oil helps the bottom crisp up while the inside stays fluffy—perfect for deep dish lovers.
Cheese-stuffed crust: Roll the edges of the dough around shredded mozzarella before baking. Use the classic Bisquick mix dough recipe and a bit of extra flour to seal in the cheese—no rising time needed!

Storing Instructions:

If you have leftovers, wrap them in plastic and keep them in the fridge for 3-4 days. Our favorite way to reheat pizza is in the air fryer at 400ºF for 5-10 minutes. Or, reheat it in the microwave or oven at 350ºF for 10 minutes.
