Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 Tbs dry active yeast
  • 1/4 tsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup water warm
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 1/2 cup white flour
  • 2 tbsp cornmeal

Instructions

  • Mix whole wheat flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add water and oil.
  • Mix adding white flour until dough forms a soft ball.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic. Place dough in an oiled bowl and cover bowl with a damp cloth. Let dough rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Press dough into desired shape. I find shaping the dough into a rectangle is easiest!
  • Sprinkle cornmeal over pizza stone. Put tough over cornmeal and top with desired sauce and toppings.
  • Bake on baking sheet or pizza stone at 500 degrees F until crust is medium brown, about 10 minutes. Cooking time is highly variable depending on how many toppings you add!
