Amazing Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

I can’t intend of 1 individual I know that doesn’t dearest pizza.  Traveling hubby as well as I are no exception.  Recently we were in Chicago as well as had deep dish pizza twice inward four days.  I intend it’s to a greater extent than true to tell nosotros ate deep dish pizza everyday of our trip but alone went to 2 restaurants.  Left over pizza is the best! 

I’m ever looking for ways to brand this American staple a piffling healthier hence this whole wheat pizza crust caught my attention.  Since I was on a curlicue amongst yeast this calendar week (ha-ha yeast roll), I idea there’s no ameliorate fourth dimension to endeavor making home-made pizza crust. 

I constitute this recipe on Tina’s weblog Carrots ‘N’ Cake but was originally posted on cdKitchen.com.  We’re rattling happy amongst the goal result.  I’ll endeavor to cutting the recipe in one-half adjacent fourth dimension every bit this made 2 large pizzas amongst an average crust, non besides thin, non besides thick.  The betoken is I volition brand this again.  It’s a keeper.

Our local Wegman’s grocery store has a home-made pizza department amongst fresh sauce as well as grated cheese cook to accept home.  You tin fifty-fifty purchase pizza crust dough already made.  All yous cause got to create is curlicue it out, slap the toppings on as well as bake.  But what fun is that?  I did alternative upward only about sauce however, as well as grabbed the cheese too.  I idea it would travel a piffling over the transcend to brand everything from scratch!  Nobody likes an over-achiever!

The ingredients are simple: 

1 teaspoon sugar, water, yeast, olive oil, salt, whole wheat flour as well as all-purpose flour.

First dissolve the saccharide inward warm H2O (110 degrees).

Sprinkle the yeast on top.

Let it residual for almost 10 minutes until foamy.

Stir inward the olive crude oil as well as salt.  Then mix inward the whole wheat flour as well as 1 loving cup of the all-purpose flour until the dough starts to come upward together.

Tip the dough out onto a surface floured amongst the remaining all-purpose flour, as well as knead until all the flour has been absorbed, as well as the ball of dough becomes smooth. 

About 10 minutes.

Work it, travel it!  Kneading activity 🙂

Place the dough inward an oiled bowl, as well as plough to coat all sides.  Cover loosely amongst a towel as well as permit stand upward inward a warm identify until doubled inward size.  About 1 hour.  When the dough is doubled, tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface as well as split upward into 2 pieces for 2 sparse crusts, or travel out whole to brand a thick crust.  Form into a tight ball as well as permit ascension for almost 45 minutes, until doubled inward size.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.  Roll a ball of dough amongst a rolling pivot (I soundless cause got it!) until it volition non stretch whatsoever further.  Then mantle it over both your fists as well as gently describe the edges outward spell rotating the crust.  

When the circle has reached the desired size, identify on a good oiled pizza pan. 

Repeat amongst the 2nd dough ball.

Top pizza amongst your favorite toppings (sauce, cheese, meats or vegetables.) 

I used sauce from Wegman’s, ruby-red onion, olives as well as cheese. 

Bake for sixteen to twenty minutes – depending on the thickness – or until the crust is crisp as well as golden at the edges.

Pizza’s ready!

Slice it upward as well as dish it out.

Very squeamish crust, crispy on the bottom, soft as well as hardy on the edges.
