In a small bowl, combine warm water, honey (or maple syrup), and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, add whole wheat flour and salt. If desired, add dried herbs for additional flavor.
Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour. Mix everything together using a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough onto a clean, lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough feels too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour as needed, but avoid adding too much.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release air. If making pizza, roll out the desired portion into a thin crust and top with sauce and toppings. If making buns, divide the dough into 12 equal portions.
For stuffed buns, flatten each dough portion into a small disc, place a teaspoon of pizza sauce and a pinch of cheese in the center, then pinch the edges together to seal and form a ball. Place the balls seam-side down on the baking sheet.
Cover the shaped dough with a kitchen towel and let them rest for 15-20 minutes for a final rise.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the pizza base or buns to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them fresh, or store in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
