Two medium pizza
crust with only one cup of all-purpose flour, one cup of whole wheat flour,
yeast and water combined with 2 tbsp. of olive oil to keep the dough from getting
soggy.
This recipe is
the best; the crust is very thin and tastes yummy. I used my food processor to
make this dough, but it also works by hand. This is a very easy and inexpensive
recipe for a homemade pizza from scratch.
For the topping,
I used some left over pesto sauce, very thin zucchini slices, fresh tomatoes
and kalamata olives.
Ingredients: (2 x 9” crust)
1 cup
all-purpose flour
1 cup whole
wheat flour
1 cup warm water
2¼ tsp. instant
dry yeast
1 tsp. salt + ¼
tsp. black pepper
2 tbsp. olive
oil
Directions:
Stir together the
water, yeast and add a pinch of sugar. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
In the bowl of
your food processor, place the dough blade and add flours, salt, pepper and the
yeast mixture.
Add 1 tbsp.
olive oil at a time and continue processing until the dough forms a ball, then
process for 1 more minute.
Coat the inside
of a large bowl with olive oil and place in the dough. Cover with plastic
wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the quality of the yeast you’re using.
Meanwhile,
prepare your favourite topping.
Preheat the oven
to 500F (250C) and place a baking tray in the oven.
Divide the dough
into 2 pieces and place on a lightly floured surface. Roll each piece very thin
to about 9” size. Remove the tray from the oven and sprinkle with cornmeal or
semolina. Place the 9” rolled crust on the baking tray and add your favourite sauce and
topping.
Bake for 15 minutes, until the pizza is golden color.
