Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

As promised, a "healthy" recipe. It was make your own pizza night at our house. We gathered a bunch of veggies from the garden and topped our pizzas. To be honest, a few pepperonis and slices of bacon were thrown in the mix, too. This pizza crust is really easy to make. You could use only AP flour, if you prefer not to make whole wheat. Enjoy!



Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
  • 3/4 cup AP flour
  • 3/4 cup Whole Wheat flour
  • 3/4 tsp instant dry yeast
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
1. In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Slowly add wet and stir until just combined. Pour onto counter and knead for 4-5 minutes (or use dough hook on mixer).
2. From dough into a ball. Lightly grease bowl, place dough inside and gently roll dough around to coat all sides. Cover and leave to rise (in microwave proofer or warm place) for 1-2 hours.
3. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Divide dough into 3-4 pieces and roll out to form personal sized pizzas. Top as desired and bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until brown and crispy.
4. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing, serve and ENJOY!
