Wheat Cinnamon Pizza Crust


Proofing Yeast:

*2 tablespoons Honey

*1 1/2 cups Warm Water

*1 tablespoon active Dry Yeast

Dissolve Honey in warm water and add the dry yeast and let rise until bubbly.

Add dry ingredients along with:

*1 teaspoon Salt

*1 tablespoon Light Olive Oil

Dry Ingredients:

*2 cups Whole Wheat Flour

*1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour

*1  1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon

Knead together all the above ingredients for about 10 minutes or until dough becomes smooth and elastic. Cover dough in a greased bowl and let rise for an hour or until double in bulk.

After rising divide dough into two balls and roll out two thin crusts or make one extra-large crust.

I used an extra-large pizza Pan. I like to use a pizza pan that has holes in the bottom and spray well with cooking spray. (You can also use a very small amount of corn meal on the bottom of any pizza pan to help with sticking. )

Note: Fold over the edge of the pizza if you like a thick Crust.

Bake the pizza crust at 500*F for 3 minutes, then remove pizza crust from the oven lowering the temperature to 425*F. And add the sauce, peach slices and blackberries to partially cooked crust and bake another 8-10 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Remove pizza from oven add the cheese if desired on top of pizza or cut pizza into slices , plate and drizzle or pipe on cream cheese frosting and Enjoy!

Peel the peaches and then slice them whole attached to the pit and then rove slices.

Pizza Crust

Proofing the Yeast:

*1 cup warm Water

*1 tablespoon Dry Active Yeast

*2 teaspoon Sugar, food for the yeast

In a small bowl add the above ingredients, let sit until bubbly.

Whisk together:

*1/2 teaspoon Salt

*1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

Combine the above wet and dry ingredients and knead into a soft ball.  (Let the dough rise while you make the Thai sauce.)

Roll out soft ball dough into a circle, until right size for your pizza pan. I used an extra-large pizza Pan. I like to use a pizza pan that has holes in the bottom and spray well with cooking spray. (You can also use a very small amount of corn meal on the bottom of pizza pan to help with sticking. )

Note: Fold over the edge of the pizza if you like a thick Crust and if using a un-perforated  pizza pan poke hole marks in dough with a fork to allow for air flow.

Bake the pizza crust at 500*F for 5 minutes, then remove pizza crust from the oven adding the toppings and bake another 10 minutes.
