I found this homemade crust recipe and really like that I don't have to let it rise til double, punch down and rise again. Plus, it's really good!
Tonight I substituted about 1/2 c of whole wheat flour to it.
1 c warm water
1 T yeast
1/2 t salt
1/3 t sugar
1 1/2 T oil
2 1/2-3 c flour
1-2 c shredded Mozzarella
1/4 c shredded Parm.
1 c your favorite sauce
Toppings of your choice
Preheat oven to 350.
Stir yeast in warm water until dissolved. Add salt, sugar, and oil. Stir in flour slowly. Form dough into ball and knead on coutertop 5 min (or in stand mixer about 2 min). When you press your finger into the dough it should spring back...then you know you've kneaded enough. I briefly knead by hand on a floured surface. Form into ball and let rest on counter covered by a towel 10-15 min. Press dough out onto pizza pan or stone and let rise in 350 oven 5-10 min. Take out of oven and turn the heat up to 425. Top with sauce, toppings, and cheese. Bake at 425 for 20-25 min.
