This recipe was so easy, and made such a wonderful chewy (but not too!) crust. Love that it incorporates some whole wheat, and it was very flavorful. Definitely a keeper.

I did this by hand and added a pinch of sugar to my yeast/water combo. After mixing the oil, yeast/water combo to the dry ingredients ( I set a bit of flour aside for working with the dough), I let it rest (about 10 minutes). Kneaded it a few minutes and divided it in 3 pieces. I let it rest covered for about 15 minutes and worked it into 3 10" individual pizzas for my kids! A hit for sure!! thanks

I thought this had a good flavour and was the perfect texture for pizza crust. I made it by hand and found that I only needed two and a half cups of flour total.

FANTASTIC. This dough was easy to work with and the taste was great. I added 1 tsp. of basil and 1 tsp. of oregano. I skipped the step of browning it first and put all my toppings on and baked at 425 degrees for 20 min. then broiled for a few minutes. PERFECT
