Ingredients
2 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour1 cup of all purpose flour2 pkgs of active dry yeast1/2 tsp sugar1 tsp of salt1 1/2 cups of warm water1/2 olive oilNote: Try adding 1/2 T of dried herbs, or a sprinke of garlic powder for a little extra flavor baked right into your dough.
In a large stand mixer with the dough hook attached add flour, dry yeast, salt & sugar. While the mixer is running slowly add the water and knead the dough until a firm ball is formed. This takes about 5 minutes.
When the ball is formed drizzle the olive oil into the side of the bowl and turn the mixer on for about 10 more seconds just to coat the dough and the inside of the mixing bowl.
Leave the dough in the mixing bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap over the top. Set the bowl aside in a warm area for approximately two hours until the dough has risen and doubled in size.
When dough is complete cut into quarters and if it is not being used immediately properly store wrapped inside plastic freezer storage bags.
If it is being used immediately - preheat oven to 500 degrees.
Sprinkle a large work surface generously with flour. Using your hands stretch the ball of dough into a circle. Using a rolling pin dusted with flour roll the dough out into a circle until very thin.
Sprinkle your cookie sheet generously with cornmeal and transfer dough onto the cookie sheet. Add desired toppings.
Bake on the bottom rack of the oven for approximately 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
