Easy Healthy No Rise Pizza Crust

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
• 1 cup warm water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons wheat gluten (optional, it helps it rise more like flour but i usually do without) (optional)

Recipe

• 1 dissolve the yeast in the water in a large bowl. add the rest of the ingredients in and mix.
• 2 dump onto a well floured surface. knead into a smooth dough (takes me about 3-5 minutes tops).
• 3 roll out and press down onto a greased pizza pan (i like to sprinkle a little corn meal on the pan before pressing down the dough).
• 4 add toppings as desired and bake at 450 for around 12-15 minutes. if you have a stone, i bake it on the bottom rack so it evenly cooks the crust without the cheese getting too crunchy.
• 5 you can also add some wheat germ or ground flax seed for added healthiness.
