Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
Main Dish
1 pkg yeast (about 2 1/4 tsp) | 1 tsp salt |
2 tsp honey or brown sugar | 4 tsp vegetable oil |
1 1/2 cups warm water | 3 1/3 to 3 2/3 cups ww flour |
Cornmeal for dusting stone |
In large bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey or sugar in the water and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir the salt and oil into the yeast solution. Mix in 2 1/2 cups flour. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Place the dough into a well-oiled bowl and cover with a cloth. Let the dough rise until double; this should take about 1 hour. Punch down the dough and form a tight ball. Allow the dough to relax for a minute before rolling out. Roll dough on lightly floured surface into 14-inch circle to fit baking stone or pan. Lightly dust baking stone with cornmeal to keep pizza from sticking. (If using a pan, you will need to grease it first.) Place dough on preheated baking stone. Top dough with pizza toppings and bake at 425 degrees for 15-25 minutes depending on how dark you want your pizza. It may take a little longer with a pan rather than a stone.
