I used this recipe to make the best homemade pizza I've ever tasted. A nice healthy whole wheat crust that's easy to make and tastes delicious can be hard to find. From the start of the dough to a finished oven baked pizza, it was only an hour and a half. Plus now I have more dough in the freezer for next time.
INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg dry yeast or 2tsp from a jar
1 cup of warm milk (about 110-115F)
1 t sugar
1 t salt
2 T olive oil divided
2.5 cup flour (I used 2 cups bread flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat)
DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix the milk, sugar, salt, yeast and 1Tbsp of oil in a small bowl and let set until foamy.
2. Add to the flour in a stand mixer with a dough hook.
3. Mix on low until just pulled together (dough should be slightly sticky).
4. Mix (knead) on medium for 6-8 minutes.
5. Coat the dough in the remaining oil and let stand covered in a warm place free of drafts until doubled in size.
6. Punch down and divide the dough in 1/2.
7. Spread one 1/2 on a 13inch pizza pan. It may take some working to spread it out and make it stick. Start from the middle and work your way out.
8. Load with your favorite toppings and bake at 400 for 10-12 minutes until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown.
9. Wrap the other 1/2 in plastic wrap and freeze until ready to use or make a second pizza.
