Ingredients

1 cup whole-wheat flour

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 package quick-rising yeast, (2 1/4 teaspoons)

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon sugar

3/4 cup hot water, (120-130°F)

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Garlic salt and herbs (basil, oregano etc.)

Preparation

Combine whole-wheat flours, yeast, salt and sugar. Combine hot water and oil in a measuring cup. Gradually pour & Mix in enough of the hot liquid until the mixture forms a sticky ball. The dough should be quite soft. If it seems dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons warm water; if too sticky, add 1 to 2 tablespoons flour.

Process until the dough forms a ball, then process for 1 minute to knead.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Coat a sheet of plastic wrap with cooking spray and place it, sprayed-side down, over the dough. Let the dough rest for 10 to 20 minutes before rolling.

Place dough in a plastic bag coated with oil for storage in the refrigerator up to a week.

When ready to use, let dough stand for 1 hour at room temp. Then place a pizza stone or baking sheet on the lowest oven rack; preheat oven to 500°F or highest setting. Roll into a 13-inch circle. Sprinkle garlic salt and herbs and bake the pizza until the bottom is crisp and golden, 10 minutes.

Top and return to oven to bake until cheese is browned.
