Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450ðF (230ðC). If using quarry tiles or a pizza stone, place them in the oven now to heat up.
  2. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  3. Add the unbleached white flour, cracked wheat flour, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 10-12 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough will be dense due to the cracked wheat.
  5. Divide the dough in half to form two large rounds. Shape them into circles and place on parchment paper or floured surfaces.
  6. Let the shaped dough rest for 15-20 minutes while you prepare your toppings.
  7. Top the dough with your favorite vegetables, such as sliced fresh tomatoes, onions, or peppers.
  8. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray (like Pam) and sprinkle with a small amount of grated cheese if desired.
  9. Place the pizzas directly onto the hot quarry tiles or pizza stone in the oven.
  10. For a steam effect, you can carefully toss a few ice cubes onto the oven floor (if using tiles/stone) to help crisp the crust.
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the edges are crisp.
  12. Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, slice, and serve warm.
