This is a no fail pizza crust the whole family will love!
- 1 tsp sugar (I use maple sugar but white is fine)
- 1 1/2c warm water
- 1 tbsp active dry yeast (I use the individual yeast packets, this ensures they are fresh)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 3 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2c all-purpose flour
- In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let stand 10min until foamy.
- Stir in olive oil and salt into yeast mixture. Then add whole wheat flour and 1/4c white flour, mix until dough starts to come together. Tip dough from bowl onto surface with remaining white flour, and knead until all flour absorbed and the ball of dough becomes smooth. Place dough in an oiled bowl and turn to coat surface. Cover loosely with towel and let stand on the counter until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- When dough is doubled, tip dough onto lightly floured surface and divide into 2 pieces for 2 thin crust pizzas or leave whole for 1 thick crust pizza. Form a tight ball place in oiled bowl, cover and let rise an additional 45min until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 425. Roll a ball of dough with a rolling pin until it will not stretch any further. Place on a well oiled pizza pan and use your hands to pull dough to fit pizza pan. (I use a 1in rectangle baking sheet).
- Top pizza with favorite topping and bake 15-20min until crust is crisp and cheese is melted.
