Quick Whole Wheat Pizza Crust

I found a healthy alternative to pizza. It's veggie pizza with whole wheat crust. It's really easy and sooo delicious!

Quick Whole Wheat Pizza Crust (from wheatfoods.org)

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 pkg active dry yeast
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup hot tap water (120-125 degrees)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon honey or granulated sugar (I used agave nectar)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, yeast, and salt. Blend in water, oil, and honey/sugar. Stir by hand vigorously until all ingredients are well mixed; about 3 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise to desired size. Press onto a pizza pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Add toppings and bake 15-20 minutes.

I decided to use bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and olives as my toppings (in addition to cheese and garlic/onion spaghetti sauce).




Aren't the peppers beautiful?!
