Drescription

Mini bagels turned into individual pizzas, loaded with pepperoni, cheese, and veggies. Perfect for an easy and fun meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water (110
  • degrees f/45 degrees c)
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over
  2. the top, and let stand for about 10 minutes, until foamy.
  3. Stir the olive oil and salt into the yeast mixture, then mix in the
  4. whole wheat flour and 1 cup of the all-purpose flour until dough
  5. starts to come together. Tip dough out onto a surface floured with
  6. the remaining all-purpose flour, and knead until all of the flour has
  7. been absorbed, and the ball of dough becomes smooth, about 10
  8. minutes. Place dough in an oiled bowl, and turn to coat the surface.
  9. Cover loosely with a towel, and let stand in a warm place until
  10. doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  11. When the dough is doubled, tip the dough out onto a lightly floured
  12. surface, and divide into 2 pieces for 2 thin crust, or leave whole to
  13. make one thick crust. Form into a tight ball. Let rise for about 45
  14. minutes, until doubled.
  15. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Roll a ball of
  16. dough with a rolling pin until it will not stretch any further. Then,
  17. drape it over both of your fists, and gently pull the edges outward,
  18. while rotating the crust. When the circle has reached the desired
  19. size, place on a well oiled pizza pan. Top pizza with your favorite
  20. toppings, such as sauce, cheese, meats, or vegetables.
  21. Bake for 16 to 20 minutes (depending on thickness) in the
  22. preheated oven, until the crust is crisp and golden at the edges, and
  23. cheese is melted on the top.
