    Recipe Introduction


    Once in a while I like a homemade pizza crust and this is just the best one ever

    List of Ingredients




    1 Tbls. granulated sugar OR honey
    1 1/4 cups warm water - 110 degrees
    1 packet active dry yeast
    1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    2 cups whole wheat flour
    1 tsp. salt
    2 Tbls. olive oil
    pizza sauce - of your choice, as needed
    shredded cheese - of your choice, as needed
    toppings - of your choice, as needed

    .


    Recipe



    -Dissolve sugar or honey and yeast in water; allow to sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
    -In a separate bowl, combine flours.
    -In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups of the flour mixture with the salt.
    -Pour the yeast mixture and oil over the flour/salt mixture.
    -Knead, gradually adding enough of the remaining flour mixture so that the dough is no longer sticky.
    -Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead until elastic, about 10-15 minutes. (see notes)
    -Shape dough into a ball and transfer to a large bowl; cover with a damp towel; allow to rise in a warm location until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
    -Punch down dough and divide into 2 equal portions.
    -Shape each portion into a 12" circle.
    -Transfer a dough circle to a greased 12" pizza pan or stone, folding the excess outwards to form a small crust.
    -Spread sauce over crust and top with cheese and desired toppings.
    -Allow to rest in a warm location for 15 minutes.
    -Bake in a 475 degree oven until crust is golden, about 20 minutes.

    NOTES : Before allowing the dough to rise, you may place it in a plastic zipper bag and freeze. When ready to use, thaw at room temperature, then proceed with instructions.
