Time 2h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1½ cups whole wheat flour
1 cup plus more for kneading all-purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2¼ tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
3 tbsp divided into thirds olive oil
1¼ cup warm water
¾ tsp Italian Seasoning
¼ tsp lemon or lime juice
1 cup tomato sauce
2 pieces removed from its casing, crumbled Italian sausage
½ cup shredded or powdered parmesan cheese
½ cup preferably fontina, asiago & provolone, shredded 3-cheese blend of your choice
½ cup cooked chopped bacon
14 slices pepperoni
pinch garlic powder

Steps:

  • In a bowl, add the warm water and yeast.
  • Stir and let the mixture bloom, until the yeast turns foamy and dissolves.
  • Sift together both flours, baking soda, cream of tartar, sugar, & salt.
  • Add the bloomed yeast into the sifter flour mixture. Mix all the ingredients together by hand or with a mixer at low speed until the dough begins to form.
  • Once the dough is smooth and well combined, dust the work area with additional flour & knead the dough by hand for about 10 minutes. Add more flour as needed.
  • Once the dough becomes elastic and bouncy, roundly shape it and put it in a greased bowl with olive oil.
  • Drizzle some olive oil over the dough, cover it, and allow it to rise for one hour.
  • After an hour, the dough will appear to have expanded in size. Poke the middle to release the extra air.
  • Grease a 12-inch pizza pan, and dust it with some flour to prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Press out the dough onto the greased pizza pan, & prick around the dough with a fork.
  • Transfer the pizza dough to a warm area & allow to rest, about 10-15 minutes covered.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Brush the pizza dough with the remaining olive oil, & pre bake them for about 5 minutes.
  • Combine the tomato sauce into a bowl with the Italian Seasoning and lemon juice.
  • Spread the tomato sauce evenly on the pizza dough, leaving a 1 inch border all around the dough.
  • Sprinkle the parmesan cheese and 3-cheese blend generously all over the tomato sauce.
  • Once you're done with the previous step, toss in the sausage and bacon and add the Italian sausage. Afterward, sprinkle the cooked pepperoni over the dough.
  • Place the pan with the dough in the oven and let it bake for about 10-15 minutes. When the crust appears golden brown and the cheese fully melted, remove and scatter the garlic powder around the pizza.
  • Cool the crusts for one minute. Once they're cool enough, cut them evenly and serve.
