WHOLE WHEAT & SEED PIZZA DOUGH

Friday night has become our in-home Pizza Date Night (we go for a date-on-the-town (+1) on Saturdays).
Our pizza crust keeps evolving a bit, but this is what I've put together for the last few times





Ingredients
  • 1 C whole wheat flour  
  • 1/2 C soft white wheat flour (or unbleached all-purpose) 
  • 1/2 C oat flour (just coarsely grind oats) 
  • 1/4 C hemp seeds (or ground flax) 
  • 1 C warm water 
  • 2 1/2 t yeast 
  • 1 t garlic powder 
  • 1 t dehydrated onion 
  • 1/2 t onion powder 
  • 2 t Italian seasoning 
  • 2 T oil 
  • salt and pepper 
Whisk together the yeast and warm water. Then stir in remaining ingredients. Sometimes I need to add about an extra 1 T of water. Sprinkle dough with a little extra flour, cover and let it rise in a warm area for about 25 minutes. Roll out the dough on a well-oiled stone or sheet. Poke the crust with a fork in several places. Bake at 400 for about 6 minutes. Add toppings and then bake for about another 15 minutes. 
Serve with popcorn and a green smoothie! (Just kidding... but that's what we do!)
