Homemade pizza


For pizza crust- pour 1 1/2 cups of warm water into a big bowl. Add 2 tsp. of dry active yeast.  Add 3T olive oil. Let set 5 minutes. Measure and add 4 1/2 cups of flour. You could use 2 cups of whole wheat and 2 1/2 of white. It's up to you. It can be varied though.  Mix doughs and knead them into the liquid mixture. Let rise 30-40 minutes.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

You can prepare your topping while the dough is rising.  We love mozzarella and provolone together with pepperoni. Just a tip-grate your cheese from a block instead of buying store bought shredded. Your cheese will taste better and not be so dried out.

Bake your pizzas for 15-20 minutes.
