Total Time
15 minutes
Ingredients
-
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water (100 to 110 degrees F)
-
1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup
-
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
-
2 cups white whole-wheat flour, plus more for kneading
-
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
-
- Stir together the warm water, honey and yeast in a small bowl. Let sit 3 to 5 minutes.
- Mix the flour and salt together in a medium bowl. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil and mix together with a spatula. Form the dough into a uniform ball in the center of the bowl. Scrape any dough stuck to the sides. The dough will be sticky. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place until it has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
- Dust baking sheet with flour. Sprinkle a generous amount of flour on a work surface. Scrape the dough onto the floured surface and knead for a couple of minutes, working in just enough flour to make the dough less sticky but still moist to the touch. Form the dough into 1, 2 or 4 balls, for large, medium and small pizzas and place the on the baking sheet. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a dish towel and let rest for 30 minutes. The dough can then be shaped and cooked as desired or wrapped well and frozen for up to 1 month. Thaw frozen dough at room temperature, shape and cook as desired.
