This is a simple healthy dough the whole family will enjoy. Add the ingredients to your bread machine when the kids get home from school and you can have delicious pizza for dinner tonight.

1 1/3 cups warm water
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups bread flour
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon yeast

Add ingredients according to manufacturer's directions. ( for mine the order is as listed above.)

Mix on dough cycle.

Separate into grapefruit size lumps for medium size pizzas. Fist-sized lumps are good for personal pizzas. Roll out with rolling pin or flatten with hands. Score holes with fork before adding sauce. Add toppings and bake on baking sheet at 450° for 15 minutes or until crust in light brown.

Gokemon - love Whole Wheat Pizza

My family and I love Whole Wheat Pizza . We make a yeast risen one mostly bread flour, but with a good amount of whole wheat in it, but I add a big dolp (2 tablespoons) of pesto to the dough after the yeast and sugar have had their turn to do their thing. I think of the pesto as the oil that is needed. The basil just comes along for the ride and adds more flavor to the dough.
(sometimes I use honey instead of sugar, and leave the pesto out, for a honeywheat dough)The honey or sugar and the water helps the yeast to proof up. It really gets the dough to rise well.

I learned to love Whole Wheat Pizza in Chico, California at Woodstocks Pizza, a great little college town pizzaira.
