- 1 cup water (make it just hot enough that you can stick your finger in it without burning you. This is so the yea)
- 1 teaspoon dry active yeast
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (for the dough ball while it rises)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 34 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
- 1 tablespoon rosemary, dried
- 1 12 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 12 cups white flour
- 2 tablespoons flour (to dust the board while kneading or rolling the dough.)
- 2 tablespoons cornmeal (to dust the bread board)
- 34 cup pasta sauce
- 2 cups shredded cheese (use your favorite type)
- meat (sausage, bacon, ham, etc.)
- fruit (pineapple, etc.)
- vegetables (peppers, onions, mushrooms, olives, etc.)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- In a measuring cup with the water, add the yeast and the sugar.
- Stir together and set aside.
- In a large bowl (preferably not metal since the yeast can take on a metallic taste) add the honey, olive oil, both types of flour, salt, basil and rosemary.
- Pour the yeast/water combination into the large bowl with the other ingredients.
- Mix the ingredients together.
- It's easiest to use a hand bender or a counter-top mixed with a dough hook, but mixing by hand always works too.
- If you mix by hand, grab a wooden spoon and stir the ingredients until everything is incorporated and the dough forms a ball.
- Let the dough rest in the bowl for 10 minutes.
- (Just leave it in the bowl and cover it with a clean towel.
- ).
- Sprinkle some flour on the board.
- Take the dough out and knead by hand for about 5 minutes.
- Pour the teaspoon of olive oil into the palm of your hand and rub all over the ball of dough making sure to cover the entire surface.
- Place the ball back into the bowl and cover again.
- Sprinkle some cornmeal on the board and take the dough out of the bowl.
- Roll it out to fit on your pizza pan.
- Once it's to the right size place it on the pan and bake it in the oven for 10 minutes or until it is slightly brown.
- Remove from the oven.
- Add the sauce, cheese and whatever toppings you would like.
- Bake it for 10 to 15 more minutes or until the edges of the crust are brown and the cheese is bubbling.
- Let it cool for a few minutes then eat up!
