Whole-Wheat Pizza Dough
1 cup warm water
1 package active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Combine the water, yeast, and all-purpose flour in a large bowl. Mix well. Add
the whole-wheat flour, oil, and salt. With hands or a large wooden spoon, work
the ingredients together until the dough holds its shape. You may need a bit
less flour, so add the whole-wheat flour gradually. Place the dough on a lightly
floured surface and knead until it is smooth and elastic, 5 minutes. If the
dough becomes sticky while you are kneading it, sprinkle a bit more all-purpose
flour over it. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled 2-quart bowl. Cover the
bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel, and let the dough rest until it has
doubled in size, 1 hour. When the dough has risen, place it on a lightly floured
surface, divide it into two or more parts, and roll them into balls. Cover them
with a towel and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes. The dough is now ready to be
shaped, topped and cooked.
