Pizza Dough With Wheat Flour
This whole-wheat pizza crust is so full of flavor, as well as easy to make. It’s chewy, soft, and lightly crispy - just add on your usual pizza toppings and bake!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup and 1 tbsp warm water (between 105-110 degrees)
- 1 1/2 tsp active-dry yeast
- 1 1/2 tsp honey
- 1 1/2 tsp olive oil (extra virgin preferably)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- *This recipe makes two nice-sized personal pizza crusts or one medium size crust (you can also halve the ingredients for one crust only)*
- In a medium bowl, combine the water (must be lukewarm), honey, olive oil, and active-dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes until it starts getting foamy. This lets you know that the yeast is fresh and activating.
- Add in both flours and the salt. Knead the dough for about five minutes until smooth. After that, let the dough sit for twenty minutes in a lightly oiled bowl (it’ll rise more and be more easier to handle).
- After the twenty minutes; divide the dough in half, and on a lightly greased baking pan - form the dough with your fingers into pizza crusts. You can make the dough thick or thin to your liking..
- Top the pizza crusts with your favorite pizza toppings, then bake at 400 degrees for around 10 minutes. Bake the pizza a couple more minutes if the crust is thicker. Enjoy!
