Whole-Wheat Pizza Crust
Ingredients
| * | 1 cup water |
| * | 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast |
| * | 1/2 tsp. sugar |
| * | 1/2 tsp. salt |
| * | 3/4 tsp. olive oil |
| * | 1 cup whole-wheat flour |
| * | 1 cup all-purpose flour |
Instructions
| 1 | Mix water, yeast, sugar, salt and olive oil in a large mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer with a dough hook, add flour gradually and mix on medium-low until dough separates from the sides of the bowl. Add more flour if too sticky. (If you don't have a dough hook, mix by hand, then turn out on a floured board and knead until dough is smooth and elastic.) |
| 2 | Form into a ball and place in a medium bowl which has been lightly coated with olive oil. Cover and let sit in a warm place for 1 hour. |
| 3 | Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil. |
| 4 | Punch down dough and lightly knead for 30 seconds. Divide into 6 3-ounce balls. Lightly flour a flat surface and roll out dough to 6-inch rounds, flouring lightly to keep rolling pin from sticking to dough. |
| 5 | Place crusts on a greased baking sheet and add toppings. Place in oven for 10 minutes or until crust is golden. |
