Whole Wheat Pizza
(Adapted from original pizza dough recipe posted on this site.)
1 cup hot water
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 - 1 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp yeast
3 cups whole wheat flour (approx.)
Mix together water, salt, honey, yeast and about 1/2 of flour. Slowly add rest of flour to make a soft dough - not too runny to work with, but not quite as stiff as bread dough.
Let dough rise 5 or 6 minutes. Spray pizza pan with cooking spray and sprinkle with cornmeal or corn muffin mix (I usually just use the muffin mix - it's handy).
Roll dough out on pan and let rise 5 or 6 minutes more.
Spread with pizza sauce and top with cheese and toppings of choice.
*Bake at 375 degrees on bottom rack of oven for about 10-12 minutes. Makes 1 large pizza.
*Note: Temperature may need to be adjusted according to the type of pan you use. Darker pans work better with a lower temp (like 375) and lighter pans and pizza stones would probably be fine at a higher temp (like 4). You may have to play around with it to get a temp that works well for your oven and pan.
