Easy Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe

Stir whole wheat flour all-purpose flour yeast salt sugar olive oil and warm water with a spatula until formed into a sticky ball of dough that pulls away from sides of a large bowl about 3-4 minutes.

Cover the bowl with a light cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) for 18 hours until doubled in size.

Preheat the oven to 550 degrees F (280 degrees C). Sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle with more flour. Form the dough into a rectangle and cut it into four equal parts. Shape each piece into a ball stretching and tucking the dough to create a smooth surface adding more flour if needed. Cover the dough balls with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.

To shape the dough sprinkle the surface with flour and lightly pat flat. Use a rolling pin to form a thin disk about 9 inches in diameter.

Transfer the formed crust to the prepared baking sheet and top as desired. Bake on the bottom rack for 4 minutes move to the middle rack and bake for 5-6 minutes more minutes until the bottom is crispy and the top is lightly browned. Move to cooling rack to cool slightly before serving.
