Not bad...

First try at pizza dough! We weren't sure it would get there...


Pizza Dough
Oven 425 15 minutes
1 pkg of yeast
1 1/4 cup of warm water
pinch brown sugar (didn't do this)
2 T olive oil
1/4t pepper (or this)
1 1/2t salt
2 1/2 to 3 cups whole wheat flour (halved bt WW and W)
Dissolve the yeast in water with the sugar
Let sit a few minutes until it is foamy
Add oil, salt, pepper
Add flour slowly, at first it might clump, Knead for 8 to 10 minutes
After it is kneaded, put in a large oiled bowl to rise for about an hour, use a pot of hot water and set it in the oven with the dough to rise and cover the bowl with a clean dish towel or paper towel
Punch down and roll into the pizza pan with thicker edges, add toppings!

But it did...

  1. You have to have some sweetner to make yeast dough rise and to grow the yeast...either honey or sugar
