Prep Time: 90 minutes
Cook Time: 15-25 minutes
Makes 1 large pizza (cut into 8 slices)
Serving size: 1 large slice
Ingredients
- One packet or 2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons molasses
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
- 2½ cups whole wheat flour
Directions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, activate the yeast by combining it with the molasses and warm water. Allow to sit for 3-5 minutes, or until the yeast begins to get foamy.
- Add the olive oil, salt, basil, oregano, vital wheat gluten, and 1 cup of the flour to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed.
- Slowly add the remaining flour in half-cup increments until the dough begins to pull away from the sides. The dough should remain tacky, but form into a ball.
- Grease a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, then rotate the dough until fully coated with oil. Let the dough rise for 60-90 minutes or until doubled in bulk.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Prepare pizza as desired. Bake for about 15-25 minutes (bake time will vary depending on the thickness of the crust).
