Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

I got tired of trying to find a whole wheat crust that didn't include white flour. So I decided to come up with one on my own and this is what I got. It taste really good. You can use any seasoning you prefer instead of the pizza herbs. Show more

Directions

  1. In a large bowl put honey into warm water and sprinkle yeast over the top. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Stir olive oil, salt and seasonings into yeast mixture then slowly add flour until dough starts to form.
  3. Tip dough onto floured surface, floured with wheat flour, and knead until all flour has been absorbed and a ball of dough becomes smooth, about 10 minutes.
  4. Place dough into bowl that has been oiled and turn to coat dough with oil. Cover loosely with a towel and let stand in a warm area free of drafts until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
  5. When dough has doubled tip out again and divide dough in half. Take the halves and divide again and again until you end of with eight equal pieces.
  6. Form each into a tight ball and let rise for about 45 minutes until doubled.
  7. Roll each ball into a circle with a rolling pin until dough no long stretches. Drape it over both of your fists and gently pull edges outward while rotating crust.
  8. Place on oiled pizza pan and top with your favorite sauce and toppings. Bake in preheated oven at 425 until edges are brown and crust are done, about 15-20 minutes.
  9. Uncooked dough can be frozen for future use.
