Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 1 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 cup No-salt-added tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 cup Fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 cup Low sodium unsalted ham, diced
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and instant yeast.
In a separate bowl, mix the warm water, olive oil, and honey until well blended.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing with a spatula until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes until it doubles in size.
Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).
After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface to fit a pizza pan.
Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza pan lined with parchment paper.
Spread the no-salt-added tomato sauce over the crust, leaving a slight border around the edges.
Sprinkle the dried oregano and garlic powder over the sauce.
Top with slices of fresh mushrooms, diced ham, shredded mozzarella, and red bell pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
