Ingredients:
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 1/2 cups warm water (110
degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 tablespoon active dry
yeast
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
In a large bowl, dissolve
sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top, and let stand for about
10 minutes, until foamy.
Stir the olive oil and salt
into the yeast mixture, then mix in the whole wheat flour and 1 cup of
the all-purpose flour until dough starts to come together.
Tip dough out onto a surface
floured with the remaining all-purpose flour, and knead until all of the
flour has been absorbed, and the ball of dough becomes smooth, about 10
minutes.
Place dough in an oiled bowl,
and turn to coat the surface. Cover loosely with a towel, and let stand
in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
When the dough is doubled,
tip the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and divide into 2 pieces
for 2 thin crust, or leave whole to make one thick crust. Form into a tight
ball. Let rise for about 45 minutes, until doubled.
Preheat the oven to 425
degrees F (220 degrees C). Roll a ball of dough with a rolling pin until
it will not stretch any further. Then, drape it over both of your fists,
and gently pull the edges outward, while rotating the crust. When the circle
has reached the desired size, place on a well oiled pizza pan.
Top pizza with your favorite
toppings, such as sauce, cheese, meats, or vegetables.
Bake for 16 to 20 minutes
(depending on thickness) in the preheated oven, until the crust is crisp
and golden at the edges, and cheese is melted on the top.
