Honey Whole Wheat Pizza Dough
This pizza dough is made with wholesome ingredients that contribute to a light yet hearty crust, perfect for any toppings you desire.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Stir it gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt. Mix them well to ensure even distribution.
- Add the honey and olive oil to the yeast mixture, stirring to combine.
- Slowly pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon or a spatula until a dough begins to form.
- On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more all-purpose flour as needed.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and transfer it back to the floured surface. Divide it into two equal parts for two medium pizzas or keep it whole for one large pizza.
- Roll out the dough to your preferred thickness and shape, then transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Add your favorite toppings and bake in a preheated oven at 475°F (245°C) for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
