So you’ve successfully made a batch of pizza dough and you’ve impressed your loved ones with a spectacular pizza. And then you find you have leftovers and can’t really have any more pizza for the day. What do you do? Discard the dough? Nuh-uh!! The yeasty dough works beautifully well even after it is frozen!
I usually make a large batch of the dough, divide into smaller batches and freeze the dough. Forget about delivery pizza. Just keep a couple dough balls in the freezer, and you’ll be able to whip up a homemade pizza faster than you could have one delivered.

How to Freeze Pizza Dough – Tutorial
Make a batch of the pizza dough. Punch it down,
Form the dough into individual balls, the size you would use to make one pizza. Lightly oil each dough ball all over.
Slide the dough ball into a freezer bag (zip lock bag) and seal, squeezing out all the air.
Freeze it in freezer upto 3 months. When you want to use, let it thaw in refrigerator for 4-5 hours and then let it rise again in a warm spot for 1-2 hours. Once it has again doubled up in volume, you can stretch it and use it as required.
