In a small bowl, combine warm water, honey, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and salt.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil.
Mix the dough with a wooden spoon or your hands until it starts to come together.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and turn it out onto a floured surface.
Roll or shape the dough into your desired pizza size and thickness, and it's ready to be topped with your favorite healthy ingredients and baked!
