Even if I'm not planning to prepare a meal for myself, I'm still always looking for the healthiest alternative possible. That's why, instead of preparing my usual pizza dough, I opted to try out this healthier version instead. I've been wanting to make a whole wheat pizza dough for quite some time now, but every recipe that I'd come across seemed to take a lot of preparation; that is, until now.
Today I'm going to share with you how to go about preparing a recipe for whole wheat pizza dough that's quick and super easy to make. Then, tomorrow, I'll share with you a delicious recipe that you can use the dough for.
So, here we go......
Whole Wheat Pizza Dough
Printer-Friendly Version
Ingredients:
1
¼ cup white flour2 ¼ tsp. active dry yeast
½ tsp. salt
2 TBSP. olive oil
1 cup warm water (not boiling)
1 1/3 – 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour (add a little more, if needed)
Directions:
In
the bowl of an electric mixer, fitted with a dough hook, combine the white
flour, yeast, and salt. Add in the olive
oil and water, and knead on high for about 5-7 minutes (If the dough doesn’t
form completely, its ok, it will form when more flour is added). Next, add in the whole wheat flour and
continue to knead, on high, until the dough forms and is somewhat tacky to the
touch. Feel free to add in a little more whole wheat flour as needed.
Once
the dough is ready, remove the bowl from the electric mixer, cover with plastic
wrap, and set in a warm area for 10-15 minutes.
Now
that the dough has had a little bit of time to rise, place it onto a well
floured surface and roll it out into whatever shape and thickness you desire.
