Whole Grain Pizza Dough

Ingredients:


1 package active dry yeast
1-1/2 cups (360mL) warm water
2 Tbsp (30mL) olive oil
2 cups (240g) unbleached white flour
1-1/2 cups (180g) whole wheat flour
1 tsp (6g) salt

Preparation:

Dissolve yeast in the warm water. Stir in olive oil and set aside.

Combine white flour and salt in a large mixing bowl, making a well in the center. Add the yeast mixture and stir until blended.

Gradually stir in the whole wheat flour, adding only enough to make a soft, workable dough.

Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. (Continue to lightly flour your work surface if the dough becomes sticky while kneading.)

Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until it’s doubled in bulk, about 35 to 40 minutes. At this point, the dough can be used to make 1 16-inch pizza, 6 Pizza Pockets or breadsticks.

Note: This recipe makes dough for 6 pizza pockets
